The lawyer for Manny Pacquiao has filed the Certificate of Candidacy for the boxer since Manny is in training for his upcoming fight this April.

Senator Richard Gomez? This political advertisement video is for an actor that may be running just for the prestige of being a senator, running from one party to another. GOMA will not win, but hopefully he will continue his fight against drugs. As to the success that he has had so far, […]

This video of Loren Legarda’s run for Senator is one of the more appealing videos out there. It shows her as the “Pagasa” for the nation and isn’t too over the top. This Political Advertisement will definitely help her in her attempt to gain the number one spot in the upcoming Philippine Elections.

The following television ad for Koko Pimentel may help him or hurt him, I’m still trying to figure it out. But in the end, the Pimentel name is famous, recognizable, and will probably help him in his bid for the senate. This campaign video of Koko is effective because it sets a scene […]

I couldn’t resist writing a little response to the very partisan and inadequate March 8 Philippine Star article of Alex Magno.
He tries to point out the inadequacies of the current opposition while steering clear of any formidable issues that hinder the success of The Administration candidates in the surveys (Good Economy due to […]

TEAM Unity’s Edgardo Angara. Everyone loves Sarah Geronimo and this video utilizes her popularity with Ed Angara’s message of education and youth. Not the most innovative campaign commercial out there, but the endorsement by a popular artista is always good in a political advertisement.

I wanted to write this little piece in order to cease the weak movement of boycotting the upcoming elections. There are repercussions to this plan, one of which I feel, is that the resulting would be the loss of votes for the opposition. There is a realization that is lost to some, and […]

Well, back from vacation, and what would you know. The Philippines is as it was before, maybe even worse. All the politics is almost mind numbingly too Filipino. No bad mouthing, just the facts. I thought, I’d take a little break before the run up to the May elections and let […]

I have to admit this tv ad for Prospero Pichay is really good. The song Bagong Umaga sung by 6 cyclemind is really great. But we don’t vote for candidates in terms of how good their television ad is, but one can’t help but admire this political advertisement. I think the song […]
