Former Priest to Run for Presidency in 2010

Former priest and now the Governor of Pampanga, Ed Panlilio have already confirmed that he will be running for President in the May 2010 elections.

In a press conference, he said that he will making his own party instead of joining existing one because both the administration and opposition party have their own vested self interest.

He further added that change is needed by the Philippines if the Filipinos wanted growth. Lastly he mentioned that the only thing that is limiting him to bid for presidency is political machinery.

In my opinion:
Political machinery will play a vital role in the candidacy of any presidentiables. Candidates are "carried" by their local counterparts. Without support from below it will a hard time vouching for the highest position in the land.

Among Ed, as he is popularly known, have already have a secret machinery waiting to be tapped: "the catholics". If he could aligned his political ambitions towards from the perspective of each and every Sunday mass goer, it can be a backbone of his way Malacanang.
