FORMER president Joseph Estrada has refused to name a candidate for the 2010 presidential elections, but he’s all praises for Senate President Manuel Villar in this video taken by INQUIRER.net reporter Veronica Uy.
Pretty ironic if he does end up endorsing Villar, if you remember the dramatic role Villar played in the impeachment of Estrada in the House of Representatives when Villar was the Speaker
At any rate, Erap is saying that his candidate for 2010 should be “pro-poor” and “anti-corruption,” according to this Breaking News article.
Here’s an excerpt:
Estrada issued the statement in response to reporters’ questions on what his criteria was in choosing the standard bearer of the opposition.
But at the same time, Estrada refused to name his candidate, saying that all presidential aspirants of the opposition would go through a process of selection that would include a series of three surveys to determine winnability.
Earlier in the day in Dinalupihan, Estrada was reported as having hinted that he was going to endorse the candidacy of Senate President Manuel Villar, who was said to be eyeing the presidency.
