election is near! so near it scares the crap out of me.
there’s a lot of ways that candidates sell themselves..but who do you think is deserving of that ‘isa kong boto’?
runs in the blood
hmm..the hierarchy! we have lots of this in our country. the dad is a mayor and the son is a counselor, a few years later the son gets to be the mayor and the dad retires but is still active in the service. this might be a strategy for true service or corruption, well, you decide.
we also have families going against their own bloodline..now where is the peace in that. i believe this is a strategy for monopoly!difficult people!
celebrities
oh yes! we also have celebs running for positions..even for presidency!i dont think its a bad idea but the crappy part is that they dont even know anything about how the government works..i mean, at least have a background man! having the heart to help people is different from running a country, or be a portion of those who runs the country! this is a serious matter people, if you want to help, you can always do it without being a politician.
aspiring
the aspiring politicians..these are the almost worse people that i have been informed of..maybe they do have a good purpose of running for the position but please, please have funds!this is not discrimination, this is a fact. if you’re running for a senate position you’ll have to have funds so you can travel around the country..and that’s not petty money, its big money we’re talking about.
from experience, these aspiring politicians turn out to be aspiring celebrities! goodness! why dont you just join STARSTRUCK instead! dont make the people hate you for your foolish ways..
public servers
oh and lastly, the true ones..those who really want to do public service through the use of law. i admire these people who are true to the citizens and true to our country. their goals are always for the good of the country without any kickbacks. but unfortunately, we cannot identify these people. haha. that’s the tricky part there..
and the famous strategy that they use might be..
motorcade
this is when they ride on a pick up and wave their hands and try to look as sweaty as ever but still smiles so that the people can see how tired they are but still want to serve the country.
commercial
just like celebrities, they make commercials because they think that this kind of media is a super great help. and yeah, i think it is too. helps those celeb candidates..^_^
flyers
i’m guessing this is one of the oldest strategy have that vote. they give out flyers with their big faces striking at you!
posters
and of course the posters..this is the other old strategy. posters are everywhere! even on restricted facades! oh my, why cant politicians follow rules?!
meeting de avanse
this is the first thing that should happen when the campaign period starts. and true enough, they lay their platforms up front. but the silly part about this is that they become instant comedians when stating their plans!(horrifying!)
i believe they do all these to please us citizens of the republic. but we should remember that each of our votes count and if we don’t use it wisely we distort the future of our children.
many has been criticized and many failed to stand up for dignity. let not the money be the basis of every good decision make. we deserve to live in a better place and we deserve a good life.
