During the first blogger event that I attended with Senator Chiz Escudero, we asked him who he would want to be President (other than him). His answer then was Senator Noynoy Aquino. Fast forward a couple of months later, I’m in another blogger event with Chiz again. This time though a lot of changes have happened. Noynoy is now actually running for President and Chiz just resigned from the NPC. I thought it would be interesting to see if what he said that would still apply. So I asked him again – if he were to not pursue his 2010 Presidential bid, would he support Noynoy Aquino? I’ve uploaded a video of him answering the question and you’ll find the answer VERY INTERESTING.
His answer?
“Headed in that directon.”
BOOM.
If this happens, all the other Presidential candidates, Villar and Estrada included, can kiss their 2010 ambitions goodbye. The remaining youth and opposition vote that Chiz has would rally around Noynoy, probably cementing his victory in 2010 unless he does something unbelievably stupid before May.
However, like what he said, nothing yet is set in stone. Chiz might go on and still make a run for the Presidency despite being independent. If there’s one thing that’s sure with Philippine politics…. it’s that nothing is really for sure, haha

He’ll run for President in 2010.
I have a strong feeling that he will. Andami niya na merchandise, haha!
would you really vote for that guy???? i mean chiz?
you must be blind and deaf…..
the guy is maangas na, traydor pa.
principle kaya he left NPC?
after all of these years?
Call that character!
Bakit nababagabag kyo kay Chiz? hahaha, umpisa pa lang marami nang nangagatog dyan, diyahe naman. Of course, Chiz is qualified to run. why not? give the benefit of the doubt! Naghahanap kayo ng perpectong tao? wala rito sa mundo, nasa isip nyo. You can run? db? i may also run? lets help CHIZ to run the race for president, un ang dapat gawin natin. “isang boses, isang bansa, CHIZ ang kailangan. Gud luck guys sa inis ninyo. hahaha. Peace!
hindi man si vilar o noy, pero yun kampo nila, mga supporters nila, panay tira kay chiz, akala ko ba malakas sila..ha ha ha
ganun din dati nun si mar pa…naisip ko lang..bakit nga kaya?
yun naman 2 newspaper lam na lam mo nasa likod ng isang presdntiable…puro tsismis ang pinagdadale, kawawa naman ang tao na mahina ang intindi, mapapaikot sya ng 2 newspaper na yun na nagdedepende sa sors na kahit sino tao pwede gawin yun..ha ha ha..wala balls si sors..kaloka..
Parang ngayon pa lang expect na ako ng People Power ulit pagkatapos ng election.
chiz is still in touched with reality. he will support his friend noynoy and together will fight corruption!
If he does it,endorse Noynoy for the 2010 presidential election then he is a big plus because they have the same goal of our country to fight corruption.
You know what, come on, we know and we believe, na wala talaga siya nagawa.
Look, I like him. Napakagaling niya, pero I think it is just of his ‘charisma’. Don’t be stupid.
Yeah, he somehow deserves to win for presidency (if I have to choose between him, Aquino, Villar, and Gibo, I’d definitely choose him) – but not his competence. Hindi pa siya puwede.
For me Honesty is the best competency! I would not go for a bar topnotcher cuddling a corrupt lying President nor a “self-made” businessman profiting from taxpayers’ money on his multiple subdivisions along C5. Would you?
THAT IS WHY NONOY IS MY PRESIDENT on May 2010!
pag naririnig ko itong taong to na nagsasalita sa TV, natatawa ako, halata kasi na nag papasikat at nagpapapogi – nagpupumilit maging makata ang dating . halatado naman na nambobola lang. nung 2004, thought i never voted for him and never will, kala ko kahit kunti eh baka may maganda din gawin. years passed, wala rin pala binatbat puro dakdak.
lol, noynoy honest?
mukha syang nagbabait baitan at nagbabanal banalan lang. ang dami na nyang kontradicting statements na nagawa, analyze nyo na lang mabuti
1. hacienda luisita
2. about his running for president
there was an article online about his interview on the wake of his mother na bakit daw sya tatakbo sa pagkapresidente eh ano daw ang role nila dun – taga ayos ng gulo at pag natapos ang gulo?
3. he is undecided to run for president, baka pag nanalo at pumalpak, sisihin nya pa ang mga tao na pumilit sa kanya na tumakbo.
at marami pang iba.
Ang tunay na leader hindi sumusuko. Sana naman young ang ating presidente, para at least kung trapo man, kunti palang ang dumi.
