Greed and love of money will make people do unrighteous things. This president is not fit for office anymore nor any part of Philippine politics. New laws should be enacted and prevent such incidents to happen. But then again, the filipino people are noted for their stupidity and I think, like the Marcoses, she can still win as congressman in Pampanga – where there are only a handfull of smart people, Ala eh?

Congratulations to Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo for a job well done for her service to our nation for two successive presidential terms! Her excellent performance in the realms of government, economic, social, educational, healthcare and foreign relations is a benchmark of success not only in her career but also for the national as a whole. She had sacrificed her life for the good of the nation – the Philippines.

Comparatively speaking with her previous presidential counterparts, she was one of the few chief executives who was able to reduce the foreign debts of the country. She was able to restore the respect and confidence of other countries including the United Nations through her diplomatic relations, goodwill and camaraderie in Asia, Middle East and Europe. She visited numerous countries and coordinated with their presidents and prime ministers to foster diplomatic and trade rapport, world peace and humanitarian assistance.

Social reforms such as providing better shelter to the needy, better education for children, more healthcare assistance to the indigents and emergency assistance during catastrophic situations like typhoons and volcanic eruptions were some of her important projects. Although she is a woman president she visited many provinces and rural areas who needs her assistance to alleviate poverty by implementing educational, healthcare and agricultural programs for the minorities.

We from the province of Pampanga are proud that she is willing to spend her time to serve as a congresswoman of our province. Karapat dapat po siyang manungkulan dahil sa kanyang katalinuhan, kasipagan at katapatan.

Ang mga Pilipino na gaya namin na nasa ibang bansa na gaya ng Amerika ay nakikita ang mabilis at masaganang pagunland ng Pilipinas.

Let us thank the Almighty for giving us such as good leader. She deserved to be the president for a job well done on her part for two successive terms. We hope and pray she will be one of the congresswoman of Pampanga because we know she deserves the job and she can fulfill her duties and responsibilites.

To our dear President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, welcome to Pampanga!

There is no doubt that an incumbent President can definitely run for Senate or Congress seat as there is no legal prohibition in our constitution….and as people say that we are “FREE COUNTRY”.

But looking on real scenario and big picture…the question is why? What is the agenda behind?

We are “FREE COUNTRY” as we got our freedom and democracy…but still colonized by “GREEDY & AMBITIOUS POLITICIAN” who only thinks of them selves. They are fighting to seek “POWER” not to serve the people.

Our country is drowning and sinking due to traditional politics and hungry people. The Filipino People is not only worth dying rather crying for “REAL FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY”.

GIVE OUR COUNTRY A CHANCE AND PEACE….STOP POLITICAL DYNASTY….HAVE CONSCINCE!

With the scoundrels and sinisters in the government, such evil practices will continue. Imagine a president, running for congresswoman and perhaps running for mayor afterwards! The filipino people is no longer surprise! WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM HOGS BUT GRUNTS?! And this include those people who dance attendance with Gloria Arroyo!

This little woman with gargantuan ambitions is hazardous to the Philippines. Not only did she maneuver “business” with the Chinese to line her pockets with moolah, she screwed the whole country by selling rights which are not hers to sell. After her term, no decent Filipino should even acknowledge this woman. She is worst than any Philippine president (including Marcos who let his wife run amok with people’s monies). She should be barred to run for any office period.

this is a good-intentioned law, yet the question would be, who would be that politician-official that would stand firm to propose such. we have a lot of political dynasties in the local and national governance and you already mentioned a few…

God bless the Philippines and it’s people!

Since there is not legal impediment for the president to run for the HR, let her. It is her right just as it is everybody else’s (who are qualified, of course).

People may see it as an attempt on her part to retain power and it may be the case but as distasteful as it may seem, one cannot just prevent her from exercising her political rights nor judge her for doing so.

Let her run if she wants to. Filing one’s certificate of candidacy is one thing. Winning the elections is another.
