It bothers me that since the creation of the Republic of the Philippines, no Bicolano had came close to being the President. We had produce a lot of capable, intelligent and very qualified Presidentiables but they never seems to convince the whole country that they can be a good leader. Raul Roco, deemed as the Best President that the Country Never Had", didn't fare well on his 2nd try for Presidency. Now it's Chiz Escudero, one of the most popular Presidentiable but for some unknown reason decided to back out.
Every election we send 3 or 4 Bicolanos in the Senate. For all we know Senators are elected by voters nationwide, that means that Bicolanos has a strong voting base in our country. So why can't we have a Bicolano President?
Hopefully, on 2016 Presidential Election, Chiz Escudero will continue to gather support esp. from the youths and most importantly from his fellow Bicolanos, so we can finally have a Bicolano President.
