Noynoy Aquino for President?

There are so many things that people can criticize about the fact that Noynoy is running for president. Noynoy Aquino for President, it has a nice ring to it does it not? It really sounds much like Ninoy Aquino for President. And of course, he is wearing his family colors. Yellow was the Edsa Revolutions’ color. And now, he is using this color in his campaign. Has he earned it? Not yet for sure. He seems to have not done much in fact. He does not even speak out in outrage against anything. No, he does not want that kind of attention. It seems to me that growing up with all that media attention to his father and his mother really made this man a little wary of such attention. After all, all that attention his father got from voicing out his righteous opposition against the corrupt tyrant is what got him killed. But of course, that is also the very thing that made him the hero that he is. Is Noynoy Aquino for president really the same as Ninoy Aquino for president? Are the two cut from the same cloth?



Time can also decide such a thing. And we can only know for sure after or rather if Noynoy wins the presidential election this year. But the other question remains. Is it worth it for us to vote for this untested person? Noynoy Aquino for president – is this really the best thing for the Philippines?

Here is a little something about the Father of Noynoy

I personally think that Noynoy might just be an okay bet. We have no proof of it, but we must have faith. We must have faith that this quiet and gentle person who was raised up by amazingly righteous parents seized this opportunity to continue the legacy of good governance which his family left. Noynoy Aquino for president sounds like a good bet to me.
