Yup, I still believe she is, unless proven otherwise. You know, honestly, I am tired of too much criticisms against our government, much more the President...I am not a GMA fan, but I would rather support a sitting President than move in the streets to ouster her. I am just simply sick and tired of all these mess. I guess I am more for peaceful transition such as 2010, the next national elections. Let us speak through the ballots...not through mutiny, or rebellion or any forms of violence or extra constitutional means. Please, let's give our country a break.

GMA's minions and lackeys claim that she's squeaky clean and, because she's such a saint, she could not commit poll fraud. So, if she's, in fact, not capable of manipulating the elections, and if the election was indeed held freely and honestly, her election to office could be considered as absolutely legal and legitimate. In turn, thus, she could be considered a legitimate president. I'm not a fool, though.

Because of the Hello Garci controversy, some consider her as illegitimate president. Although she is suspected manipulating the election, the fact that she was inaugurated as president, I believe Gloria Arroyo is a legitimate president. Besides, who else? Joseph Estrada? Although personally I'm not a pro-GMA, I think she is more knowledgeable in the position. ^_^

In terms of law from our constitution she is not a legitimate president.She became a president because of another illegitimate president by the name of Busch jr.

I believe that she is the legitimate president as the term of former Pres Estrada is over and this is actually a new term for her after the election.
