Wala namang b(removed) at tunay na walang bahid sa lahat ng kandidato sa pagka-pangulo. So doon na lang ako sa merong track record at mabuti ang kalooban, taliwas sa kabastusan na laging naririnig sa kanya. Para sa akin, mas mabuti na ang bastos ng lantaran kesa sa mapagkunwari at nagbab(removed)-b(removed)an pero nasa loob ang lahat ng kabastusan at kasamaan. Duterte pa rin!
Ang mailagay na pangulo sa year 2016 ay dapat may political will at di corrupt, di matitinag sa pananakot ng iba at may disiplina sa sarili — yan si Mayor Duterte pinakita lamang sa atin na walang hahawak sa kanya dahil ang pinaglaban niya ang kapakanan ng mga masang Pilipino na matagal ng nasakatan tuwing eleksyon. Yan po ang kailangan ng katulad ko — Di natin masisi ang maraming naghahangad ng pagbabago – si Mayor duterte lang ang pipigil sa masamang iniisip at gawa at least may kinatakot na ngayon ang masamang tao at ang mga mamayan ay malayang lumakad sa kalye like davao City.
To those detractors of President Duterte: You can not put a good man down. Sorry na lang kayo. He is the only candidate who loves the Philippines and its people that is why we are voting for him. Long live President Duterte! May God continue to protect you and give you wisdom on how to make this country a prosperous and peaceful one.
I will not be part of a government that promises its people blood, killings, execution, dictatorship, rape on women, disrespecting traditional allied countries, split the republic through federalism , instill fear with bullying supporters, empowering police and soldiers to shoot to kill, no regards for the catholic bishops and Pope and making all of these as a laughing joke or under the pretense of fighting crime and corruption. There must be a better way and thus a BIG NO for this CANDIDATE !!!
