Sans rhetoric and emo the core issue to each candidate is this – What is your value proposition? What do you bring to the table? What’s in it for me – the taxpayer? What’s in it for my children and community? What’s in it for our country? What’s in it for our public agents? What’s [...]

2/06/10 •

Ahh…love is in the air. It’s hard to explain what, give or take, 40% of Filipinos voters are feeling right now.
