Why GORDON SHOULD BE President 1 (Election Bitterness Post 8)

Seriously, i almost decided not to vote for him too "kasi nga hindi siya mananalo."

Pero yun yung problema eh. Either you are not voting for Gordon because you're voting for noynoy because you're emotionally attached to Cory or because you don't want Villar to win. And yes, if you're voting for either Villar or Gibo, you have to analyze character more (or analyze your sanity for that matter) for the former and analyze politics a little bit more for the latter. These two simply don't deserve it.

And yet, the only one who seems to be genuinely concerned - and by this have a clear platform and STAND on what he's gonna do - for our country is left to be, well, not voted because he would not win anyway.

There is something seriously flawed with that reasoning.

I will NOT VOTE for him because he will not win.

Isn't the mere act of not voting for someone the CAUSE of why he will lose? Then, how, for pete's sake, can you make that a reason for not voting. Are we now this stupid to not realize it's a paradox and more so be trapped by it??

I vote for the person who I know would do something when he's in that palace. I vote for the person not vowing to stop poverty but laying out platforms and concrete moves on how to do so. I vote not for the person who presents me with only a surname as his mere justification for winning but for the one who presents me with his vision.

My choice remains this. I don't care if my countrymen chooses otherwise. If they do, that just means they remain in the dark.

I refuse to not vote for change.

I don't care who wins.

What I care about is whether my vote is right or not.

I will vote for CHANGE. Sana kaya mo rin yun gawin. :)
