Let us admit the fact that as of the moment, we technically have only two proponents in the Presidential Race on May 2010. It's got to be a head on fight between Liberal Party's Noynoy Aquino and Nacionalista Party's Manny Villar. The latest SWS survey revealed that Villar has narrowed the gap between him and Aquino by just 7 statistical points. Conducted on January 21 to 25 with 2,100 respondents, the survey shows that Aquino is ahead with 42%, against Villar with 35%.
But though Aquino still leads in the surveys (both by SWS and Pulse Asia), I still believe that Manny Villar will finally emerge as the next President of the Philippines. Here are my ten (10) humble reasons:
1. The various presidential forums conducted by media giants ABS-CBN and GMA News, including other forums sponsored by schools and other organizations define who among them know what they're talking about. To my personal assessment, and based on the forums, Villar, Teodoro and Gordon are the most capable for the Presidential job.
2. Villar has the money- that is, of course converted into paid tv advertisements that reach even the remotest village so long as they have their television sets.
3. Speaking of paid tv ads, Villar's get the best attention from viewers. Children love the jingle, and whenever you ask them, they'd say, "I Like Manny Villar". And you just can't easily say no to children!
4. If you look at the trends, Noynoy's surveys ratings continue to drop in the recent months. Erap, Gibo, Gordon's ratings, doesn't move significantly. It is Villar's numbers that creeps up and slowly closes in to Aquino.
5. If Lito Banayo is correct, GMA is actually supporting Villar; not Gibo.
6. Villar has a big mass base- Bongbong Marcos (from the North), Adel Tamano (from the South), including the leftists headed by Ka Satur Ocampo.
7. Dolphy, Joey De Leon, Willie Revillame and Michael V. endorse Villar, and we all just love comedians.
8. Roxas overshadows Aquino when it comes to discussion of various issues. To some, this converts to the thought that Noynoy is not his own man.
9. Noynoy just couldn't stop smoking his cigar.
10. Noynoy is not Ninoy; Noynoy is not Cory.
(Perhaps for a follow-up, I will make a blog on How Noynoy would win in 2010)

Some say Villar is suicidal for he is giving away house & lot just because of his ambition.
But who can give house & lot from any of the presidentiables just because of their ambition.
Noynoy can't even give a portion of the Hacienda Luisita for anyone of the farmers.
Villar has been branded as cuddler of Bongbong Marcos (from the North)including the leftists headed by Ka Satur Ocampo.
Precisely that was our long dream - to be united and live in peace.

masyadong malawak ang usaping pulitika, kaspangarigan.
sana lang nga ay mapili natin ng mabuti ang mga lider na mangunguna sa atin sa susunod na mga taon.
Malawak nga, kaya wala tayong magagawa kundi magbakasakali.

Kahit alam ng Dios ngayon ang mabuti mong budhi hindi Niya alam ang susunod mong gagawin kapag naka-upo o anduon ka na sa isang sitwasyon.
Kaya nga sinubok Niya si Abraham kung talagang kaya niyang ihandog ang kanyang anak na si Isaac at pinigilan siya nang ito'y kanya ng isasagawa.
Gen 22:12 He said, "Don't lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."
God said now I know.
Hindi ba inilalagay Niya ang mga bagay sa harap mo at depende sa iyo kung ano ang pipiliin mo bagama't itinuro niya kung anong mabuti sa iyo.
