Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino Jr.


I've cast my vote for the Philippine presidency for at least 4 times now.
I gave my vote for my first Presidential bet based on instinct.


I have to write here that I am from the North, where the most influential of all political clans that has graced Philippine politics hold sway. Yes. I am a true blue Marcos voter. Whatever the media brand him and his family most Ilocanos will uphold the Marcos children now and until they are still active in politics.


My sympathy is with those who experienced first hand the horrors of politically motivated aggressions. I am saddened by the inhumane conditions, the violation of human rights claimed by the victims and their family, friends, and other acquaintances. 


But in the North, visual inspection can't deny any of the numerous  projects that helped improve Northern Luzon's economy and attracted local and foreign investors. Ilocanos know how to return good deeds. The North is loyal and this loyalty helped the North solidify into a Marcos stronghold. 


But the Marcos children do not have FEM's charisma to voters.


And now, the May 10, 2010 presidential elections is almost here. My vote of course is for Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino Jr.

Marcos ally or not. Noynoy for me is the cleanest of all the presidential candidates. I know he will champion the needs of the people. I know Noynoy will put foremost in his agenda, as president, the people's needs and not of any political ambition nor for influence and power. I will vote for Noynoy. My vote is for my countrymen.
