Who you would vote for? based on popularity or credibility??
They say that being popular has an edge to gather votes. They say being popular is being a public property. They cannot hide anything, cannot hide assets.. in short, being popular is being transparent to everyone..
They say credible candidates are candidates who know how to manipulate the goverment..they are genius in their field.. In short, they know how to corrupt without others knowing it...
Who is much of a stand? the credible or the popular?

Well having a good credibility doesn't mean you're already a corrupt person, just like us ordinary citizens, we oftenly say we should take care of our family's credibility so as not to be judged rudely by others. As for popularity it is true that if you're more popular alot of people listen and respect you much more. I think both are important as a politician. If you have a good credibility and popular for being a good servant of our country then such candidate would really win in these election.

I don't think the credible candidates are those who know how to manipulate the government for if so, then they are not credible. They may be able to cover up like the present administration is doing and so they are not credible. These are not the people who are considered credible. I would vote for credible candidates but not those who fall under your definition of credible candidates.

for me, it would definitely be credibility... among the candidates, i like Chiz Escudero maybe because of the way he delivers his idea, he express his views and opinions in a way that the public can easily understand and agree to them... popularity has an edge since most uneducated voters would probably go for popular candidates...

No doubt about it, we should vouch for a candidate with a good reputation and outstanding credibility. Popularity should come in second and it should be caused by the candidate's honest work and moral behavior.
