Before I became a blogger, a first run a community forum dedicated to gaming. Most of my members are comprised of young people and honestly, most of them are able to express their constructive opinion even if they are addicted to gaming.
One of the topic being raised in the then pRO Chaos Board was about Sonia Roco. Topic was created by one of my good member, Briar Rose, who wanted to ask everyone on why they should consider Sonia Roco. Most members participated in the discussion and expressed favorably towards Sonia.
Here’s what she wrote about Sonia Roco.
Awright kiddos, let’s talk!
I was quite cynical and my brows rose when I heard that Sonia Roco, wife of the late Sen. Raul Roco was planning to run in the 2007 Senatorial Elections. And now, according to my observations, it seems that Sonia is well-liked by the online populace when the truth is, nobody knew of her (close to being intangible
) aside from the fact that she is Raul Roco’s wife.
I have several questions to those people who voted for her (in this thread)…
If you will compare her to the other candidates; how can you say that she is much worthy of your sacred vote? Are you even aware about her political platforms and her motives for running? :blink:
Also, she is from the Ateneo and led the list of the Ten Outstanding Students of the Philippines way back in the year 1964; which means that, Sonia is very smart but that doesn’t equal to being a good Senator, right?
To sum it all up, Sonia has better credentials than other candidates but she lacks experience in the political scene and has yet to prove her capacity and competence — fine! No problem with that. But do you think that she’s in the right party? Do you think that the opposition is only using her and might give her a bad impression in the future? I doubt it if Erap knows Sonia before her bid to the Senate this year… :rolleyes:
Okay, let’s us say she’s a good person – a wife, a mother, simple, down to earth, etc. So, aside from those qualities mentioned above, kindly give us some deeper reasons why should we vote for her. Let’s not forget that many Filipinos have this long-running belief that intelligence is somewhat marriage-transmittable (like what happened to Ninoy-Corey) but still, they are two different individuals and being the wife of a late Senator doesn’t necessarily mean that she can automatically be a Senator or a good Senator as well…so, don’t ever answer me that.
Let’s empower ourselves, okay? Para hindi tayo tata*nga-t*nga at boto lang ng boto.
