    I would say it is p4p between ***** and Carter as the worst and most embarrassing US President.

    The main thing about ***** is that he is here during a particularly dangerous time for the Free World, and he's making it much more dangerous. A Chicago grafter who never really worked for a living is NOT the best model to emulate. Manny P. is tons better than *****.

      I wouldn't call a man a coward who, originally a flyweight, and only a couple of years removed from the 126-30 lb class, who steps into a boxing ring with a monster like Cotto, who even though restricted to 145, had recently been a 140 lb. champion.

      I'd call him very brave, even foolhardy brave.

      No. Manny P. is a brave man, as 99% of boxers are. It's the obscene boxing posters, hiding behind anonymous user names, who are the cowards.

          Let's see how he does at congress first. President might be a long shot for him, but i guess anything can happen. I wish he will fight floydocaine first.

            I suppose if we had our George Bush.. the Filipinese can have it's Manny Pacquiao.
            Great fighter, but I doubt he would do well running a country.
            You never know though.

              a fool with good intentions running the country is better than the smartest person in the world who only wants to exploit his people for his own greed and gain.. which is what all the past Filipino Presidents have done.

                    Pacquiao for President? Not next time around

                    ofcourse he could he's still very young. he has plenty of time to do good in congerss and become a political power house. he might be even too young at this point doesn't U.S. have a 35 year age minimum to be president? I wonder if Philippines has a similar requirement. But anyways one day I'm sure he will be.
                    To be President of The Philippine he needs to be 40 years old. He is 31 and the next election is in 6 years.

                    Here is the way I see it. If he decides to run for higher office he must wait until the next presidential election and run for the Senate which requires him to be 35 on the day of the election itself. The senators are elected at large and the 12 running with the highest vote totals get the positions. He would be running against the 12 elected this week and not against the other 12. There are 24 senators and they are elected every 3 years so half are always up for election.

                    If he were to win a senate seat he would then have 6 more years to wait before he could run for President, at which time he would be 43 & old enough to be President and to have made a mark in Congress or the Senate.

                      It's not like they could do any worse.
