About 4 months ago I broached the idea of an ideal tandem for the 2010 Presidential Elections, the Gordon-Fernando tandem. Yesterday, that idea materialized as both of them decided to pair up and aspire for the unthinkable.
I know they know that it will be an uphill battle for them to win the election. They have to double-up or triple up their efforts in their campaign. Without talking about the viability of their campaign, I think nobody can doubt that they are very capable and deserving candidates. In fact I'll go farther in saying that I believe they are the most capable candidate to become the President and Vice-President of the Philippines.
Nobody can't deny the fact that they did an excellent job as a government officials. From being City mayor, SBMA Chairman, Tourism secretary and Senator (for Gordon) and Marikina and MMDA Chairman for Bayani Fernando, they've proven that they are an excellent ADministrator and they have political will to implement what is best for the Country.
For now, I have to wait and see on who among these Presidentiables will finally win my one and very important vote. It's a toss-up between Noynoy and Gordon.
