Former Senator Ernesto Maceda predicts Vice President Jejomar Binay will run for president in 2016, names his possible running mates

Published: Feb 15, 2012 - 5:32pm

ABS-CBNNews.com—citing an ANC interview—reports that former senator Ernesto Maceda said on Wednesday, February 15, that "at least 18 people want to run for senator under Vice President Jejomar Binay’s coalition in the 2013 elections."

 

Maceda said that the following senators are part of the group: incumbent senators Francis Escudero, Loren Legarda, Gregorio Honasan and Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III, as well as Jackie Ponce Enrile (son of Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile) and Joey de Venecia (son of former Speaker Jose de Venecia). Maceda added that he himself "may possibly make a comeback in the elections next year under Binay’s coalition."

 

Moreover, when asked if he thinks Binay would be running as president in 2016, Maceda answered: "[There is] no doubt about that." He went on to name Binay's potential running mates: Senators Escudero, Jinggoy Estrada, or even Bong Revilla.

    The Philippines is avariciously and notoriously a corrupt country not only in the far east, but in the whole world. However, NOT ALL Presidents down to the level of the barangay captain who were elected in government are that really corrupt. I am reminded of what Lord Acton once said, that: "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The highest seat in the land is the seat of power. But Presidents come and go, except past presidents like FEM and GMA, who lunatically enjoys the seat of their pants.

    These cheaters wants to be Presidents for life, who blindly thought that Malacanang Palace is theirs and theirs alone. What the heck! I have full trust in BINAY and NOYNOY. I just hope and pray that when it is time for NOYNOY to go, the transition to power to the next President peaceably follows.

    Open the website of BINAY. If ERAP is for the poor, BINAY's heart is for the pro-poor too. Need I write more? To hell it goes for the cheaters and corrupt officials in the executive, judiciary and legislative branches of the government. GO TO HELL.

    Power crazed Binay has always only had eyes for one thing...Malacanang...and if he brings his Makati 'Robin Hood' philosophy to the top job watch out....anyone who legitimately earns a living in this country will get fleeced to provide handouts to his beloved masa...why people trust this guy shows how well he's done his PR...and how few people have really looked closely at how he and his mini-me son operate in Makati

    The pickings are slim. Makati city hall was not a bastion of integrity during Binay's watch. Lots of shenanigans, turf wars, red tape, and whatnot. Am just not sold on the guy due to numerous allegations of graft and corruption against him during his 20 years as Makati mayor.
