Hello there,
Well, most pinoy lotters had been talking about those who are more popular in the surveys and those who are a lot more exposed in the commercial tv ads. some had already talked about other candidates like Gibo who is good about talking in his speech.
OKay, I know that some one will talk about some one else, which is already a talk in every forum. can I REQUEST to just give me your perception about this guy . and simply not to respond with your perception of other candidates, in this topic.
because I already know how good and bad those other candidates are most specially those who TOP the surveys.
Mind you, i didn't give a damn about them last year UNTIL he started making answering the questions given to him in every single forum. ads are USELESS
If you have trouble giving perceptions, here's some reference.

I am sure that there are online users who live in Olongapo. you can search it in friendster or any other social sites to make your own initiative. although debates are good, youmay never know if they change after the election or proclamation of their presidency. his views on issues are very good, he's a realist. but still am into the other candidate.which is my favorite.

i doubt that he will eventually get the same amount of information that others are given to the people in the surveys and other non -government organizations who wanted to know the candidates. besides, just rumors and stories you won't determine the truth

Hello Nobody4me,
You won't have to be oblidged to vote since you're not a Filipino Citizen yet. but you know you could be a Boto Patroller if you wanted to because that can help you be vigilant in case there is anomaly when it comes into the process of the election count, even if it's automated. just watch the elections, and be careful

What's the issue on Nobody4me's citizenship? I think he gave his opinion and that's it he didn't say he wanted to vote or something, right?

you seemed to like this guy so much. i have watch the debates and the press conference too. i believe he is good with plans on education and infrastructure. but i think he has different views and much more daring than the other who's popular in the manipulative.
but some how in the UP debate, Erap didn't come not because of inquirer, but maybe because of what gordon said about erap on how he was kick out of olongapo mayor.

I have research on this erap character. he's much more afraid since corruption issues will be boiled to him again. and he can't get an heart attack on the day he gets bombareded with those issues.

Hello Jean,
No, because erap has tendency to hate news papers most specially who made them, if i remember correctly he had an issue with Manila Bulletin too. youknow i was thinking again about his plan and i think he's taking too many risk with what he wants for the country, most specifically the kindle because the public isn't aware of this. he should consulted this with Deped as well, which I am wondering why her didn't.
am sure the audience got weird with this feeling.1 person likes this

hi,
I can understand your concern that you want to expose him from the mylotters because you wanted our view in him, am i right. he has a good track in subic, and red cross. he clearly has a platform that he kept repeating in the debate. he's aggressive and assertive
but trouble is that some people can get intimidated with candidates like that leads to having an impression that he's a dictator. i like him but he's on the papers today saying his approach might have him loose votes. he's brave but if this keeps up he may not win the election. but i like his honesty, though. unlike other politicians who are more on promises.

Hello Mikaela_taz,
Well, that's their problem. Like what Bayani Fernando said, we should fear the lack of understanding of the Filipino people, and they don't even know the term. besides, the word first spread from those illegal vendoers that were thrown out by the MMDA when he was just in-charge. i feel bad if he won't win just because they misunderstood them both. @hexeduser22 (7418)

Gordon is good for me but I still cannot say anything for now because I'm still researching and digging more information in every candidate.

last friday I talked to a friend regarding who are we going to vote for. He answered "Gordon." I wondered why and he said, "I researched the internet to know who this person really is." he continued, "Hes ideas inspire me alot and that his credibility to become the next president is tested." He sighted examples like, "During a hostage crises in Southern Mindanao, Gordon spent personal money to save the hostages." This happened when he found out that the government will no longer talk in the negotiating table.
I personally don't know yet. I still confused about who is the best candidate. This discussion could a useful reference for me.

Hello danzy,
hey, can you put an picture there? I admire you for your support to Gordon but still the best advice is still do more research on him and watch the debates. if you can see there's some links there to other debates from ABS and GMA, likely the debate last time in UP.
He's good in his explanations but still i wonder about his kindle proposal and his favor for VFA. yes, he favors vfa, were two of our filipina got raped by a US soldier and how we was able to solved the issue in prositution in olongapo whereas the US base and soldiers were there.
Gordon is good choice for me now, but am also seeing good points on other candidates.

What i think about him? well, he knows about things and initiatives are very innovative but trouble is, are people aware of his plat forms more like the kindle book? people wouldn't surely won't want that since they wouldn't understand it. i was there and books are still important than electronic book. at least he is indeed daring.

Hello Rebelotter,
You have a point there. if this happens then companies related to manifacturing or making books will be forced to complain and this gonna be a lot of trouble with him. although his plan for education is remarkable, he's experiment may not be as good as any one would think. I've been thinking about this and what i realized is that he should have explained it and tell people to look at it in the website.
