The Presidential election is almost here. The Campaign period started and black propaganda are being thrown to each of the presidential candidates. The highest position of the land is now available and the candidates are Sen. Mirriam Santiago, VP Jejomar Binay, Senator Grace Poe, DILG Sec, Mar Roxas and Davao city Mayor Rodrigo Duterte. This is the time for Filipinos to vote for their leader and this is the time to show to the world that we Filipinos need a true leader. A leader who will not be affected by the politics. A leader who will guide us to true changes and a leader who will not be manipulated by the rich.
