for the presidency and vice-presidency has even been floated – the same daughter-father tandem that held the mayorship and vice-mayorship of Davao City in 2010-13.
A politician who takes the “go solo” route upon reaching the limit of allowable terms simply runs for another position or takes a leave from politics, then returns to run again for the same old position. He or she does it on his or her own, and does not enter into an agreement with another politician who would assume the former’s position during the former’s absence.
The practice of “keep it in the family” has contributed to a major bane in the country’s politics: political dynasties. In many areas, preventing one person’s monopoly of power has helped paved the way for the concentration of power in political families and clans instead. The 1987 Constitution bans political dynasties, but there is no legislation to implement the ban. Thus, political dynasties have flourished.
2010 witnessed the swapping of posts. The daughter became mayor and the father, vice-mayor. Sara was elected mayor with a wide winning margin despite being pitted against a veteran politician, Prospero Nograles, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Bentang-benta sa mga tanga ang Sara Duterte for 2022.
Of course, plan nya patakbuhin si First Lady GaGO and ang Inday dahil sigurado kulungan punta nya kapag natalo sila. 🤪🤪🤪
No to Duterte and no to anyone connected with him!
The first Noelle! Noelle. Noelle..
Hindi naman ang machinations ng mga politiko ang problema eh. Given na yan, safe to GENERALIZE, na gahaman sa poder ang mga politiko. Ang kailangan na mangyari ay kung paano maging smart ang mga botante, na matutong isipin ang bansa at hindi lang ang sariling issues.
