A SIMPLE response to a mammoth challenge this fellow-balikbayan doctor [Martin Bautista] has taken upon himself: sir, more power to Davids like you, who, rightly, have sprung the conventional box, and dare the “windmills.”
Like you, I was thought to be a nitwit when I returned to the Philippines from 38 years in Europe. I chose to stay in Mindanao for the very same reasons you’re trying to wake up this turpid nation of otherwise, warm, good people.
Sir, I’m already campaigning for your party. May more wake up and do something about it, this time. Thank you– from a small but significant spark of a sector of our nation.

I believe that Dr. Bautista will really make a big difference for our country. It’s not like Dr. Bautista just woke up one day and said to run for a seat in the house. He has been talking about this for years. As far back as when he was still a rookie resident in New York, he had his eyes in his beloved country. He gave up a very booming medical practice with his doctor wife and moved his family back here in the Philippines so he can help change the direction of our country.
So, people if you want to have a change in our country, vote for Dr. Martin Bautista.

My fellow country men I sincerely believe that Dr. Martin Bautista’s dream to serve the Pinoy ay tunay at dakilang hangarin ng isang balikbayan. We need him in the Senate like Sen.Flavier. Please vote Dr. Bautista.

Isa ako sa naniniwala na kailangan ang pagbabago. At munti kung kakayahan ay ginawa ko ang nararapat, Sinimulan ko na ang pagpapadala ng txt msg sa akin mga kaibigan para kampanyahan ang KAPATIRAN sabay hiling na ipasa ito sa iba pa nilang mga kakilala. Sa ganung paraan ko maipapakita ang aking suporta

We need more people like Martin Bautista in the Senate. We need him to bring about fresh perspectives and change the way things are. Keep him in your magic 12.
