97 ang gustong mag-presidente?

Kadaghan ba? Pila kaha kanila ang nuisance candidates? Sumala pa, lima lamang ang maisip nga most tangible nga piliunon pagka-presidente, ania kining maisip nga mubong resume’ sa maong lima ka presidentiables, sumala sa napatik sa Philippine Star:

Maria Leonor "Leni" Robredo: The 56-year-old incumbent vice president, nagkasungi siya uban ni Duterte sa isyo sa giingon nga bloody drug war ug sa mga pro-China foreign policies.

Kanhi human rights lawyer, misulod siya sa politika, usa ka tuig gikan sa pagkamatay sa iyang bana, Jesse. Napilde niya, in a congressional race,  ang kaatbang sa politika nga nagagikan sa usa ka influential political dynasty.

“She has been praised for her pandemic response program, which has relied on donations due to the meager budget allocated to her office. Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa.  59 years old, kanhi national police chief.Kanhi police officer sa Davao, ug namahayag nga ang iyang kadidatora dugay nang gi-consider sa partido, long before the COC, apan, wala kini ipahibawo sa katawhan, isip strategy.

Pamahayag ni dela Rosa: “I am fielded by my political party PDP-Laban for reasons that they have not found anyone else who will continue the legacy of President Duterte, our fight against drugs and criminality, corruption, terrorism, and our economic recovery amid the pandemic."

Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. 64 years old. “Bongbong has launched a bid to return his family to power. His father, who ruled the country for two decades, was overthrown in the 1986 "People Power" revolution, forcing the family into exile in Hawaii.”

Giingon nga Oxford-educated, si Bongbong nahimong provincial governor, congressman ug senator. Napilde siya ni Robredo in a slim margin sa 2016 vice presidential race. Pamahayag ni Bngbong: "I will bring that form of unifying leadership back to our country.”

Francisco "Isko Moreno" Domagoso. The 46-year-old mayor of Manila styles himself as a centrist in a country still deeply divided.

"I will be a healing president," pamahayag ni Moreno. Gipaabot nga Iyang i-capitalize ang iyang kabus nga kagikan, humble beginnings, handsome looks, ug ang iyang mga infrastructure projects.

Dugang pamahayag ni Isko: "I don't belong to a large clan. I am neither a son nor a daughter of a president.” Usa ka kanhi artista, nadiskobrian sa usa ka talent scout niadtong 1993. Ug nia pa: “A son of a stevedore and housewife, he grew up in the slums of Manila, where he "salvaged in restaurant garbage bins for leftovers which were repurposed by his practical mother into the family dinner. As a young boy, he collected newspapers and glass bottles and sold them to junk dealers.”

Emmanuel "Manny" Pacquiao. 42-years-old, incumbent senator, mi-retire pagka-boksidor kay mo-focus sa iyang kandidatora pagka-presdente. “ Recently he had a fallout with President Duterte amid infighting in the ruling PDP Laban party. Pacquiao has criticized graft in the Duterte administration and warned that corrupt government officials will be jailed if he becomes president.”

Iyang gisaligan ang iyang “rags-to-riches life,” matud niya: “The Manny Pacquiao in front of you has been moulded by poverty." Natawo sa Mindanao, nagsugod sa pamoksing sa nagpanuigon pa’g 16, ug nagmalampuson sa iyang career, diin iyang naangkon ang walo ka world titles sa nagkalainlaing nga weight divisions. “He has been criticized as an absentee lawmaker with unimpressive legislative record,“ matud pa.
