A Filipino's View on Manny Pacquiao

[-MAKAVELLI-]

No racism but some of those older cats around him look like the bad guys from old Chinnese fighting movies or Van Dam type movies

I read that **** too, in like 2 seconds. I dont get why people think its takes so long to read something, (even though I myself rarely reads something long either)

sorry i stopped after "i don't get".

i'll reply to your post later when i finish reading it.

I agree with your post about Manny not being knowledgeable about the policies, etc.

Here is my thing, and it's not to insult manny: manny is a guy who is poorly educated, and has not had a real good track record of telling people "no". Just a couple of years ago, Manny accepted a briefcase full of cash in the back of a limousine from Oscar Delahoya when he was already under contract. That doesn't signal "political reformer" to me.

Rather than enter politics directly, I would prefer to see Manny get deeply involved in a NGO. He can leverage his popularity all across Asia and he would be much less limited.

As a congressman, he has one vote. Out of 250. Or whatever. As the head of a NGO, he can make more of an impact on the whole country...and not be restricted by the rules of the parliamentary body...and not have a voting constituency to pander to.

Does anyone else notice the usual people that crowds Pacquiao in the ring? To be honest, they look like mob bosses, drug lords and kingpins. If Pac wins, I'm sure they'll be tagging along.

Like a selfish boxing fan I would like him to run for the next elections when he's retired.

most of those guys are already politicians.

aside from pac's team most of those guys who get in the ring with him are like politicians and stuff.
