Grace Lee on P-Noy's critics: "I'd debate [with] them and tell them he's very smart"

Published: Feb 6, 2012 - 5:20am

In Wilson Flores' column, Will Soon Flourish, which was published in the February 5 edition of The Philippine Star, TV host Grace Lee discussed President Noynoy Aquino's best points. She pointed out: "He’s really very intelligent. Whatever we talk aboutwhether politics, economics, books or musiche’s so knowledgeable. He knows a lot."

 

Lee likewise said: "Whenever some critics say bad things about him, that he’s not aggressive or that he’s not matalino (intelligent), I’d debate [with] them and tell them he’s very smart. In fact, I learn a lot talking to him."

 

And, since it's the president is turning 52 this February 8, Lee, who is 29, was asked about the "special birthday gift" she was getting for him. She replied, "I’m still planning to get one, I’ve not yet decided what gift."

    Presidents have a good grasp of general knowledge. That's a given. Even Erap attended the Ateneo and Mapua, meaning, he's not dumb. He just played the part. This country never had dumb presidents, only overrated ones (like Quezon). Even the housewife, Cory, attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, meaning she was very good with numbers. Several of them, like Marcos, went to UP, premiere university ng bansa mula noon hanggang ngayon. So Grace Lee is impressed because she can converse with him on a variety of topics. It's stock knowledge. It's a given, girl. Look for the intangibles.

    Shalani could have been a better future first lady for Pnoy but there must be something in him that Shalani shied away from. Grace Lee being of a different genre is not matched to the president. She just bask in the present glory of being talked about

    true luv conquers all ... just hoping that grace lee have no other motives in loving P Noy. P Noy needs a sincere and honest woman who could assist and give prestige to our country. God Bless.....

    I remember dati sa show na Sweet Life, when they celebrated her birthday, may surprise guest na old boyfriend itong si Grace Lee. Ka-level din sa karakas ni PNoy pero mas bata. Grabe. Halos ayaw niyang lapitan. Parang nandidiri. Kaya ngayon kay PNoy, alam na. So I guess, siya ang totoong matalino at hindi si PNoy.
