Binay or Roxas: neither of them can be trusted

I DO NOT trust Jejomar Binay and neither do I trust Mar Roxas, and I do not want any of them to be the next president of the Philippines. They are no different from the typical traditional politicians. They will just do the political dance through the six years of their presidency, that is, whoever of them wins it.

I do not know about Grace Poe, but it looks like she may be the only one with the balls to do what is right if she ever gets elected to be president of the Philippines.

Binay will be a self-serving leader, as we have seen from the overwhelming evidence churned out against his crooked rule as mayor of Makati City.

Roxas, on the other hand, will just try to appease his close friends as the incumbent President Aquino is doing. Even as secretary of the Department of Interior and Local Government, he has not done anything original or something that can be said to be coming from what he believes is right. Instead, Roxas is blindly following Mr. Aquino despite all the mistakes the latter has committed.
