Marvin's Ideas

Last night I was able to tune-in to ABS-CBN and I watch their program called “Harapan” The Vice Presidential Debate”. There, six vice presidential candidate took the stage for a debate. On stage were Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay of the Partido ng Demokratikong Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan, former Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chairman Bayani Fernando of Bagumbayan-Volunteers for a New Philippines, Senator Loren Legarda of the Nationalist People’s Coalition, Senator Manuel Roxas of the Liberal Party, former broadcaster Jay Sonza of Kilusang Bagong Lipunan, and former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman Perfecto Yasay of Bagong Pilipinas Movement. I have witness the arguments and the ideas that these candidates present to the public. It started with an introduction from the candidates wherein most of them give their political platforms. At that early point of the program, a lot of arguments were raised by them. Then the proper debate begun, the candidates started to exchange question and response to it as well. The program was also made interactive throughout the nation through text messaging and I guess there is also a chat with the respective in charge for each of the candidates. It is like a survey wherein the people will decide whether the statements, answers, or response of the candidate towards the questions are believable or unbelievable. I appreciate the program very well because it helped me to make better decision of who to vote for this coming election. Anyways, I really see the dirt within the world of politics. Just by hearing from those peoples mouth, I can say that there is really something behind of why they really wanted to win. Hmmm something smells fishy!!!
