The Elections of 2008 will undoubtedly be historic for many reasons. The race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama is without precedent. This marks the first time in history that a woman has sought her party’s nomination for president.
We cannot say it is the first …

I am not even quite sure what John Edwards was doing in this race to begin with. Sure he was the Vice Presidential candidate back in 2004, and we all know how well that campaign went. And this was a race that everyone knew was going to …

Hillary Clinton talks a lot about Universal Health care and other plans she has. But she is not being honest with her fans. I don’t know why she hides things from the people. It seems she is trying to trick people into trusting her. She has secretly attended the Bilderberg …

Michelle Bachman is a congresswoman from Minnesota and she is expected to announce that she’s running for the Republican nomination for president. I don’t believe that she should run for president. Even if she runs I don’t believe she has any chance of winning. …

I don’t watch CNN too much because at times there just seems to be so much information that my brain simply can’t process. This particular segment addresses the idea that Obama is still a mystery to the American public. But many political commentators have agreed that …

From one of the most talked-about political races in this nation’s history comes a candidate who truly has shaken up the world: Barack Obama. People love the man for his oratory skills. They love him for his views on the Iraq war. And truly, …

Rudy Giuliani is slipping in the polls. All of the polls and now he is doing what he said he would not do and campaigning in the states with the earliest caucuses and primaries, but have the lowest number of delegates. His original game plan was to focus …

Gilbert Teodoro or Gibo for short has seemed to overcome my choosy heart. Well this is as far as choosing the right Presidential candidate for the Philippines 2010 election is concerned. Honestly, I never really think I would choose Gibo. In the first place, I did not even …

Donald Trump is a real estate developer. He has a lot of buildings throughout the country that were both built and named after him. Although he won’t say exactly what he’s worth most people assume that it’s a lot. I love watching him answer questions about …

For those of you who don’t know it, McNairy County is Walking Tall country. Between Buford Pusser, Tommy Riley, and Mary Winkler, our county has had more media here in the past year than most rural counties get in 10. Being in the media’s spotlight has revealed …

OK, I’m going to be fair about this and will start out by saying I know he’s only been president for a couple of weeks so giving him a grade this early into his president (before his first 100 days are even up) is jumping the gun a bit.
And, …

I realise, as any person of experience and virtue will tell you, that in evaluating another person, fairness and humility are attributes we should normally embrace. There is a time for fairness and humility, although when you are lying in the road spread-eagled after a drunk has run you …

David Miliband is the older brother of the current leader of the United Kingdom’s opposition Labour Party, Ed Miliband. Up until very recently it was David who was expected by most people to have the more significant political career, especially as he had already served at a high level …

I have to say that I’m certainly not a fan of Sarah Palin. She was the republican vice presidential candidate in 08 and now she’s a TV celebrity and she works for Fox News. Some of the things that she says and does are completely …

Last, after eating dinner, I was watching television and it was on ABS-CBN Channel 15, then while I was watching I saw this advertisement from Senate President Manuel Villar, he was campaign for something like helping abused overseas Filipino workers to get back home immediately. Well, I was …

I don’t like anarchists. They are bitter, arrogant, stupid individuals, the lot of them. The likes of Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky kind of anarchists is what I’m talking about here. People who will talk your ears off with their high-minded snotty gobbledy-gook then turn around …

The other day everybody was glued to the tube for the most awaited State of the Nation Address (SONA) of the President of the Republic of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. I applaud the people responsible who drafted the speech. The President was exemplary in her delivery that it …

After Hurricane Katrina did its damage a couple years ago, FEMA got a bad rep for being slow to react and not providing adequate help for those in need.

I am pretty sure that it’s not just America who’s been bracing for the November 2008 Presidential Elections, because even me who does not live in US is very anxious of the outcome of this Democrat nomination. I have been reading news, articles, and blogs on the different …

All of you think for your selfs,I’m careful to jump into this think tank,seeing your very savvy. Barack Obama indeed is a very scary candidate and I wish the under thirty group and the black voter would truly do research on Obama. Obama is coming off as being a …

I really don’t like how the political news is broadcast today, it seems to be more about entertainment and opinions, rather than real news. I tried watching FOX news but it was so slanted towards the right, it seemed phony and unreal, I watch MSNBC mostly because they …

Ralph Recto a former Senator of the Philippine Senate lost his bid for re-election in 2007 National Election. I myself did not vote for him because I believe he did not deserve to be re-elected. He was the author of the Reformed Value Added Law that has now …

Jindal has done …

The only information I know about this president wannabe is his political advertisement on tv and nothing else. Although he says that he is capable of making our country Philippines progress, I don’t think he has the heart to make our country united. It is too early for him …

How can John Howard, Prime Minister of Australia, live in Sydney, work in Canberra and retain his leadership creditability? I think creditability comes with minimisation of expenses, especially large expenses. The Opposition claim John Howard has spent $18.4 million the way he lives since attaining government in 1996. He …

It truly shows the growth of The United States that finally a black man has become the figure head of the world’s last standing superpower.

There are a couple of reviews on this site expounding upon how moral and honest Barack Obama is, etcetera etcetera. However, if you closely examine him he doesn’t look so sunshine perfect. I urge you to look closer at his policies and seriously questioning …

This very famous Philippine senator has captured the hearts of Filipinos for his years of dedicated service to the poorest of the poor. He has been winning elections over elections because of this unique quality Sen. Villar possesses; his feelings for his poor countrymen. For those who do not …

You know, I just can’t keep myself from liking Mike Gravel. Sure, I disagree with a lot of his politics, but he seems to be the only Democrat in the race for the President this year that has any real integrity. He is very intelligent, has a …

In my opinion, Mr. Obama has alot of the same idea’s and views as communist Russia back in the 70’s and 80’s. And Im sure a good deal of us remember how that turned out. Total government control is a terrible way to run a country and …

The other day I saw part of a debate on You Tube and one of the candidates I had never heard of was Ron Paul. What I learned was that Ron Paul is running as a Republican candidate for President of the United States of America. Ron Paul did …

Ok, now Bush has really done it. He’s gone too far. Flagrantly violating the Constitution by ordering the use of illegal wiretaps goodness knows how many times. Even conservatives are in an uproar. Almost nobody is going to stand for this.
But here’s the thing. …

I am outraged that the U.S. Government under the Bush Administration has failed to provide enough adequate funding in order to restore and rebuild the cities of New Orleans devastated by Katrina. I am amazed at how the U.S. Gov’t managed to finance millions of dollars to finance the …

The point that Senator Barack Obama lacks the necessary experience to act as Commander in Chief is quite irrelevant.
Senator Obama has rightly pointed out that in spite of their huge political experiences with their impressive curriculum vitae, people such as Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Hillary Clinton wrongfully engaged the …

Bayani Fernando is my Vice-President for this 2010 Philippine National Election. Actually I was also rooting for his presidential bid until he lost the opportunity to become Administration Standard Bearer to Gilbert Teodoro.
Now what made me choose this man to be my Vice-President? Well this man is a transformer. …

Representative John Murtha, Democratic Congressman and marine veteran with 37 years of service, has proposed a withdrawal plan for troops in Iraq to take place over a six month period. It is a well-thought out, appropriate proposal that would do well to serve our nation and our troops.
The …

Loren Legarda could have been my bet for Vice-President this coming May 10, 2010 Philippine National Election if only she did not become a political opportunist. Remember her sudden defection to Joseph Estrada’s camp during the last national election. She was the running mate of Fernando Poe Jr. but …

Barack Obama’s candidacy in the 2008 Presidential election should come as no surprise to anyone who listened to his keynote address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. He was the only speaker from either party, including the presidential nominees themselves, who captivated his audience. Whether you support or oppose …

When I first learned that Manny Villar would run for President I thought he would be my candidate. Well after all, he seemed to be an honorable man. He served as Senate President for sometime and he in fairness have performed quite well. I also like his seemingly amiable …
