RJ Ledesma of the Philippine Star writes: What I am endorsing is that we vote with an informed conscience — if you have to pore through their credentials and platforms printed in the dailies; if you have to click through every page on their campaign website; if you have to struggle through another one of their radio interviews; if you have listen through another set of televised debates (if they ever do push through); if you have to force yourself to sit through another round of political advertisements; if you have to talk with their manicurists and gardeners to get a true measure of the candidates. That is the sacrifice we make for the next six years for our future, my future and my daughter’s future. Because commercials won’t make that vote. Endorsements won’t make that vote. Surveys (no matter how many of them are conducted) won’t make that vote. It is us who will make that vote. On May 10, I will vote for a president who will restore a sense of dignity and humility to an office that has long lost is luster. I will vote for a president who insists that justice and fairness be of equal application both in his family and in his country. I will vote for a leader who acknowledges the mistakes of past administrations and is not afraid to do what is right by his people who have been wronged. I will vote for a leader who is not afraid to be held accountable for the values that must be upheld by the highest office in the land. I will vote for a president whom I can be proud to tell my daughter is the legitimate president of our beleaguered yet eternally beloved country. But in the end, I just want to vote for a president who won’t screw us over — who won’t screw me over. Much. Because we’ve got to start some place. You see, we of the ‘80s generation are a hardy bunch. But let us not be a foolhardy bunch. Or else we’re all back to That’s Entertainment. Jejejejeje. Read the entire article here
