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 share your sentiments…sayang at hindi politically matured ang mga pinoy…andun pa rin tayo sa kung sino ang liyamado…Not his lost, but our lost ika nga.

I feel so SAD, that Mr. Bautista did not make it to the senate, I first saw him in GMA7 Isang tanong and I admire him since then, Poor us Filipino, we need someone like him but we let him passed. Sir Good Luck po… If you will run again, I still vote for you. “,

Naniniwala ako na hindi dito matatapos ang adhikain ni Dr. M. Bautista para makatulong sa ating bayan at mga kababayan. Sana lang mas bigyang pansin pa siya ng mga taong gusto niyang matulungan. Ipinangampanya ko siya di lamang sa kadahilanang kaapelyido ko siya kundi dahil naniniwala ako sa kanyang malinis na hangarin. Sayang nga lamang at kunti lang ang nakuha niyang boto. Di pa huli ang lahat, ito pa lang ang simula. Goodluck Dr. Bautista!

too bad Dr. Bautista doesnt have enough money for his campaign,if only his speeches & platforms were given the chance to be heard and watched by filipinos instead of those lousy and stupid political ads with nonsense jingles paraded by some dumb celebrities, then he maybe could have enough votes to put him into senate,unfortunately for him and for us filipinos it will never happen…what a shame! we filipinos never learn
