There had been rumors about the upcoming State of the Nation Address (SONA) of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, would not be the last. However, according to television news yesterday, the DA, will make sure that the upcoming SONA of the President this year would be her last SONA.

What would be the reason a President could extend her term? It is changing the Constitution which they termed as, charter change or “Cha-cha” in the Philippines.  If by chance, the Amending of the 1987 Constitution would push through, President Arroyo would still say in power further than 2010. On the other hand, the President has assured that there is going to be a 2010 election, but she never confirmed it to be in a Presidential Form, which means there is a chance that the incumbent President will become a Prime Minister if the Constitution is amended.

Political Personalities seem to be getting ready for their candidacy for the 2010 election, though these personalities doesn’t seem to think it to be a political campaign, obviously, it helps in their publicity. Everyone seem to have their vision to show, whether it is a political campaign or just a normal publicity? It is still publicity, and it helps in their candidacy for the year 2010.

Speaking of candidacy? There’s a hearsay that former President Joseph Estrada, is going to run again for Presidency in the 2010 election, basing it on his latest ad: “Tatapusin ko sa 2010” well he seemed to be telling everyone that indeed he is running for Presidency again to finish his term.

There’s a gossip that Mar Roxas, Villar, Legarda, among others will be the contenders of ERAP; who also have their own advocacy ads, but for me? Knowing that you are to run for candidacy, it is unethical to have those ads at the period, where you are to file a candidacy it is more of an advance political campaign for me.
