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.

TO ALL
You may be interested in visiting Dr. Martin Bautista’s website (a senatorial candidate of ‘Ang Kapatiran’ together with Adrian Sison and Zosimo Paredes). He’s a 44-year-old gastroenterologist in the US who came home. You can see from his background that he truly means service.

Minsan lang ako maga-agree sayo. Tama ka. Kasi karamihan ng populace natin mahihirap so you have to recognize your target market. Sad to say, most of our people are poor who need the basics. So yung exposure niya sa TV for debates is not sufficient. Dapat alamin niya muna yung needs of the main populace (mostly C,D). Hindi sufficient ang issues kasi hindi yun ang concern ng karamihan.

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. “,

Fr: Salina.
The reason ang katiparan didn’t win because the filipino people don’t know them. They should start from the begining. Run in their barrio so that the people well know them.

All is not lost! The Kapatiran has enkindled in our society with the urgency of the need to reform. I hope this newly lighted candle would continue to burn till all of our society will realize its importance. Keep up the campaign so that we can see you in the Senate at 2010.
