Noynoy Aquino said

Today is 9/9/09 and the jump-start of a glorious battle in favor of good governance and democracy. At the Club Filipino in Greenhills, San Juan City, Noynoy Aquino already announced that he would run for the presidential post next year.

1. He declared that, “Tinatanggap ko ang hiling ng sambayanan. Tinatanggap ko ang tagubilin ng aking mga magulang. Tinatanggap ko ang responsibilidad na ituloy ang laban para sa bayan. Tinatanggap ko ang hamon na mamuno sa laban na ito. Tatakbo po ako sa pagka-pangulo sa darating na halalan." (from inquirer.net, 2009)

2. Having these exact words, people are hoping for changes in the government. Even my circle of friends are asking me to support the call of the people that Noynoy should run. As a political science grad, I understand that a candidacy that is supported by the majority will surely win the race.

Knowing this news, I am inclined to answer the e-mails that I received regarding support for the candidacy of Noynoy Aquino. I will also ask other people to join the cause of fighting for the welfare of the people. And to this day, may the blessings of independence and democracy from the Almighty God be present.
