Good Luck Mr. David
Sociologist and TV personality Randy David has taken a strong stand against the alleged plan of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to run for a seat in Congress in 2010.
From GMANews.TV
“Nakakahiya naman yata ang mga Kapampangan kung walang ni isang hahamon, tatayo at hahadlang sa kanyang mga balakin [It would be a shame for the Kapampangans if no one would challenge, stand up and block Mrs Arroyo's plans],” David said in an interview with GMA News.
I wish you good luck Mr. David. Too bad I’m not a voter in that district. If I were I will most definitely vote for you.
I have no insider information on Mr. David’s chances of winning against PGMA. All I know is that he will certainly be in for a tough fight should PGMA push through with running as representative of Pampanga’s 2nd District.
My gut tells me though that Mr. David stands a chance of defeating PGMA. In a fair and level playing field, he might even win via landslide. I sense that the people of Pampanga know deep in their hearts that it is time to put an end to the rule of the Arroyos. I suspect Kapampangans know that the right thing to do come 2010 is to not vote for PGMA. I seriously feel that this will be the case after all Kapampangans are Filipinos too.
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” (Edmund Burke)
So much of the history of the struggle between good and evil can be explained by Edmund Burke’s observation. Time and again those who profess to be good seem to clearly outnumber those who are evil, yet those who are evil seem to prevail far too often. Seldom is it the numbers that determine the outcome, but whether those who claim to be good men are willing to stand up and fight for what they know to be right.
