Is Pacquiao qualified for politics?

what time is the floyd dlh conference and where? Damn, lemme ask Rick.

What you base this on, I don't know. what time is the floyd dlh conference and where?

I hope i am wrong but i see Solis upsetting Pac. What you base this on, I don't know.

i didnt read the whole thread, but from the sounds of it he needs to get his shit straight before he does anything else... Pac' shit is liquid right now and his doing something else besides boxing. I hope i am wrong but i see Solis upsetting Pac.

Is the phillipines qualified to be a country?....they speak hundreds of different languages and they all hate each other...pac fits right in the government there...it's a thug government are you qualified to be a person; a human being? 100 languages is nothing, check out china ... we all hate each other?? wtf ... we are the most forgiving people on the planet, although we hate at times but it does not last long ... pac fits the govement alright not because of what he can do but for his intention to help people, but as of know it is still not the right time for that ...

Do we need an actor/bodybuilder/foreigner/steroid abuser as the governor of California? I am not saying his doing a good job, but Californians voted for him again.

MANNY PACQUIAO'S SPEECH ANNOUNCING HE'S THROWN HIS HAT IN THE RING, OR HIS RING IN THE HAT, TO BECOME MAYOR OF GENERAL SANTOS CITY Michael Marley 2/9/2007 My Fellow Gensanians, I do not ask what you can do for Mayor Manny. Rather, I ask what Mayor Manny can do for you. I have a dream for Gensan. Unlike many people I know in boxing who always say " I have a scheme".... First, let me tell you about some of my endorsements. Old time Kennedy Democrat Bob Arum, who is my exclusive promoter this month, endorsed me. Don King, the versatile and flexible Republicrat and Bush backer, endorses me. Oscar De La Hoya, who wants me to mention that the world's best, sweetest and most magnificent tuna comes from our local waters, endorses me as he continues to try to get his Golden Boy hooks in me. Enough about rich foreigners who like the fact that I will fight any Mexican in the world and beat each and every one like a piñata. I am proud to say that disorganized labor is feeling my electoral heat and I just landed an endorsement bigger than any local tuna ever hauled into our Gensan ports. Yes, the Tricycle Drivers Union is standing by me. After April 21 in San Antonio, I will be adding Jorge Solis to the union rolls. I am sure you will see Solis' pedaling skills once the first bell rings in Texas that night. This fight will be more one-sided than when the Mexicanos trapped the Americans inside the Alamo. As you know, I spend many of my waking hours drinking beer, San Miguel only if you please barkeep, and playing pool...one of my campaign promises is free beer all over Gensan on Election Day but ONLY until you vote. After you've punched my ticket, I am sorry but the bars will revert to cash only. As an inspiration to the youth of the city, I will travel far and wide after the election giving our impressionable youngsters lessons in karaoke and in dropping the nine-ball in the side pocket. I am sure that these skills will carry our treasured youth to great heights, maybe to a billiards career or a shot on the creepy "American Idol" program. The local Bar Association and the local bars are teaming up for a promotion called "take a shot with Mayor Manny." I wondered why the legal eagles are backing me so readily but then I realized that I generate much work for them as I sign any document put in front of me. You can ask Uncle Bob and Cousin Oscar all about that. As one of your erudite Boxingconfidential.com readers noted, if I ever got arrested on any charge, the first thing I would do is sign a blank confession. I love my pen and I love the sweeping flourish of my signature. I cannot wait to sign any bills placed on my huge naugahyde Official Mayor's Desk. In fact, any voter who can prove to our satisfaction that he or she voted for me multiple times will receive an Official Manny Pacquiao Promotional Contract Signing Pen. My trainer Freddie Roach will be distributing these at all office products stores on Election Night. I am sure Freddie will have the time to do this as he is only training 744 other boxers now, including Mr. Oscar, the Gensan tuna lover. "The pen stops here!". That will be my rallying cry as I sign whatever the hack give me. For those of you suffering from sleep disorders, I will send my sleep adviser Michael Koncz to your home. He will sleep on the floor beside your bed, give you warm milk, sing you Canadian lullabies...whatever it takes for you, dear voter, to get some shut eye. So, besides, suds, karaoke and hours of playing pool...what do I bring to you, my beloved people? I bring my fighting spirit and a fifth grade education. I never said I would outsmart my opponents but how would they like to match left jabs, uppercuts and hooks? Nearly forgot. Someone asked me the name of my party....it is The Party That Never Ends. So rock on my constituents. And....don't stop thinking about tomorrow because tomorrow will be a brighter day in Gensan. I am Manny Pacquaio and the WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO all approved this message! LMAO! that was the funniest political speech I've ever heard! It just gives you a small peek at how Manny thinks. This will turn out bad for Manny if he is elected. Its a lose-lose situatuion.

Pacquiao would be used as nothing but a poster boy for votes. He would be manipulated and wouldn't really know what's going on around him.

This is the type of situation where Manny is used as the puppet or curtain. All Manny's words will be someone else's. It's ashame.

It would be a sad story if he were to be manipulated and then cast away once his reputation was ruined. Pacquaio is a hard working, maybe even selfless guy who's worked himself to exhaustion several times in the past for his fans and obligations. He would be easy prey IMO. Stay out of politics Manny, for your own sake and for the sake of your millions of fans.

A politician is not supposed to be some elite genius, but I doubt if Pacquaio even has a 100 IQ. I just get the feeling he's kind of a simple guy. No offense to him or his fans, he seems like a wonderful human being and great fighter, and I wish him all the happiness and success in the world, but I see him being easily manipulated. right on the money KA... if Jeng Gacal can manipulate Pac to sign two contracts, so much more the big time politicians here... Pac is revered here in our country, but i can say that many people also view that his entrance in politics is a very big no no.... :nonono:

HELL NO!!!!!!! politicians here in the RP are the lowest form of scumbags there is... Pac is a good person with good intentions... it's just sad that people aound him are manipulating him to ride his popularity... :nonono:

arnold was more qualified...the dude is pretty smart...and he was better then gray davis the only reason people hate him is because he is a republican...in a mostly democratic state. but arnold cannot create miracles for the already damaged state that gray davis made california davis was a democrat does that mean democrats are bad nope. ventura was not qualified, arnold was doing alot of civic work and supported alot of political issues since the early 80s... he has way more qualification then you would think he even has a degree unlike pacquiao... arnold election=terminator and other movies famous for.

Manny is good for boxing not Philippine politics.

HAHHAHA No way is Arnold better than Davis. People are just easily brainwashed into fixing a problem that was seriously non-existant. Arnold and Ventura are in the same boat, both shouldnt be in office.... and I can not believe the people that put the world's most powerful state in the hands of some retard like arny.
