Well, matagal ng inaantabayanan ng country ang “YOUTH VOTE.” Para sa akin, naniniwala tayo diyan, maganda ang kinabukasan at umaasa tayo sa lakas ng pwersa’t henerasyon ng kabataan, tulad ng karanasan ng mauunlad na bansa sa kanluran.
Kaya lang, sa katangian ng sistemang pulitikal at election sa ating bansa, mukhang bangungot ang sectoral vote (YOUTH, WOMEN, FARMERS, LABOR, CHURCH VOTE, OFW Vote, etc….. There ’s no such thing as SECTORAL VOTE sa Plipinas!!!
Ang mayroon tayo, PATRONAGE at TRAPO VOTE.
Mahina ang ating middle class (intelektwal voter-critical voter), dahil sa desperadong lagay, marami sa kanila ay lumilikas- migrate.
Ang VOTER’S EDUCATION CAMPAIGN ng civil society organization ay seasonal. Nananatiling buluk ang Political party system sa bansa at ang campaign finance ng electoral campaign ay lubhang nakababahala. Aabot na sa P100.0 bilyon ang ginagastos ng mga pulitiko sa tuwing election. Ang isang presidente o senador ay kailangang gumastos ng kalakahating bilyong piso (P500.0 milyon) para sa makinarya, propaganda at vote buying.
Ang isang mayor (3rd class municipality) ay kailangang gumastos ng P10.0 milyon para manalo at hindi madaya sa kampanya. GANITO KABULOK ang ating election sa Pilipinas. Hindi ko alam kung paano MAIIGPAWAN ng YOUTH VOTE ang ganitong klase ng lagay ng ating buluk na pulitika sa bansa.

Well said Neil.
The common denominator for change is the youth because they are the future and they are the NOW!!
Any one above 40 (like me) have the wisdom
but has sooo many filters for having been frustrated sooo many years.
I would rather that we take the error on making much younger people run our country than let the seniors continue to hedge and look for the best option,taking the shots after the target has gone.
Ang Kapatiran Party had just organized the K2 (kabataan at kapatiran) and in 1 day in an event got 300 sign ups 90% were the young!!
Team RP is in the right direction.
Godbless the NOW generation.Its yours!!
Mabuhay Ang Kabutihan Panglahat !!

Pakiusap lang itigil nyo na ang pagpapalutang ng pangalan ni Erap para sa 2010 Presidential Election, maawa naman kayo sa bayan. Kawawa naman si Juan kung isang mandarambong ang susunod na President. Maawa naman kayo. Tama na, sobra na, itigil nyo na ang panloloko sa bayan.

It is a shame if he runs again as president, anyway this person do not know shame so he think that the filipino people really needs him. Hopefully, the people of the Philippines will also learn how to select a qualified person to lead our country.
The media should also stop to cover this person in every news. He is not an ideal person for the new generation that is coming.

the running priest must exorcist himself first! its very obvious n d n sya mka Diyos.. kinakain n ng politika ang isipan nya. d n Diyos ang pinag sisilbihan nya kundi mga politiko at un kanyang partido. he’s doings are unGodly. mas malakas b ang kita s politika kesa s simbahan?
