ADEL TAMANO (Glimpse bwt him)
1. CREDIBLE LEADER.
2. HE UNIFIES THE DIVIDED.
INFUSES BLOOD TO A DYING GOAL, AT THE RIGHT TIME AND AT THE PRECISE MOMENT.
3. HE IS THE SILVER LINING ACROSS THE DARKEST HORIZON WITH A RAY OF HOPE AND A BURST OF LIGHT.
HE IS LIKE A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR,
GRABBED IN A GLORIOUS SPLENDOR OF IDEALISM, RIDING ON HIS YOUTHFUL CHARISMA
EXUDING THE GRANDEUR OF CREDIBILITY, DRAPED WITH THE COPE OF UNSULLIED CREDENTIALS.
ADEL TAMANO FOR SENATOR!
HE WON BY A LANDSLIDE VICTORY IN A NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF A.L.C.U.
CATCH IT ON YOUTUBE, SEE HOW THEY GIVE THANKS TO ADEL TAMANO.
he is a very good and intelligent man. actually he is our speaker when we had our CHRIST THE KING YOUTH DAY here in La Union(Bangar).. He had so much to offer for our country. .
My vote is for Alex Lacson. I read his book and I’ve heard him speak. Here is a man who genuinely means well and isn’t the “trapo” politician who is there for his own gain. We need more men and women like him!
Alex “Pinoy” Lacson is Our New Hope - he is the only new face, non-politician running for the Senate among the top15 candidates.

Just a request for the MOD of this site. I hope you could regulate comments that are off the topic at hand; that is on post not relating to Alex “Pinoy” Lacson. Thank you
Philippine Daily Inquirer
DAVAO CITY, Philippines—Mindanao peace and human rights advocate Fr. Eliseo Mercado branded the senatorial bid of former Cabinet member Silvestre Bello III as “the realization of the long-time struggle of the people of Mindanao to have an equal opportunity to join the national elections.”
Mercado, convenor of Kusog Mindanaw, a civil society group in Mindanao, said leaders like Bello deserve the support of the people because of their strong advocacy for Mindanao’s development, peace and human rights issues.
“It has been a struggle and clamor of the Mindanawons to see people from (other areas) speaking on their behalf in the national government. Over the years, that did not happen,” said Mercado by phone.
“The advocacies of Bebot (Bello) have always been for the betterment of Mindanao,” said Mercado.
He said Kusog Mindanao will definitely support the candidacy of Bello.
The decision of Bello to run for the Senate, Mercado said, quenches Mindanao’s thirst to be well represented.
Created in 1994, Kusog Mindanaw is a multisectoral coalition that seeks to promote peace and development in Mindanao. Jeffrey M. Tupas, Inquirer Mindanao
His book “12 Little Things…” was the first book, i am a USA citizen, came across that agreed upon how i felt about things in the Philipopines so if i were to share with others about this country I would not sound bias since other Filipinos agrees upon what i am seeing.
Got the chance to meet this guy, read his book, very very deserving to have a seat in the Senate!
will definitely vote for him..
seems to be God fearing , intelligent, diligent.
These are the men we should vote for.
Iba talaga kapag may tako sa DIyos .. hindi magnanakaw
Alex Lacson is better than any of the young politicians out there! YUNG IBA PAPOGI LANG, WALANG UTAK! YUNG IBA NAMAN, SUMIKAT LANG DAHIL TIPONG SHOWBIZ, IT’S TIME TO ADD ANOTHER REAL BRAIN IN THE SENATE, PARA MAY KASAMA SI CHIZ!
Alex Lacson is my greedy cousin. If elected this selfish bas(%*@^ will just plunder the system. I don’t trust him
He is a devil in disguise. Idiots only like him. He runs for the senate because of the pork barrel allocation and guess what? He brags to me that he will only give his relatives and friends.
a wolf disguised as a sheep. He has a lot of illegal activites and owns a couple of GRO beer pubs.

His credentials are good. He’s not a traditional politician right? But I think I still have to do more research on him before I decide to vote for him.
