Meet the July 2012 Presidential Candidates

Day 1,685, 02:12 • Published in Philippines

• by Vincenzo Roque

Just four more days until we elect again a president, which will decide the fate of our country for this month of July. Will we conquer more regions or will we get conquered again? Will we become stronger or will we stay like this, being bullied by others? The next head of state will decide this all so let's meet our nominees.

DrummerMike - the candidate from the Filipino Communist Party who is also being supported by the top 2 party Kilusan ng Makabayang Pilipino and the top 3 party Democratic Party for Progress. This RL American is currently the Minister of Media (and Drums), a position he has held for the fourth time now. He was also part of the 35th and 37th Philippine Congress. He was the first to announce his intention to run, doing it a month ago through his newspaper The Heartbeat. Through the same newspaper, he announced his cabinet and plans.

Vasili Zaytsev - the candidate from the top 1 party Revolutionary Socialist Party of which he is party president. This RL Turk is currently the Vice Minister of Defense and is part of the 37th Philippine Congress. He first announced his intention to run through his newspaper Socialist Revolution. He elaborated on this through their party's propaganda branch's newspaper, Pigeon.

J Grey - the candidate from the party A New Hope and the current Philippine president. He hasn't released any articles yet regarding his rerunning but here's his objectives and cabinet for his last run.

Marie von Gablitz - the candidate from the Royal Philippines Party of which she is party president. She's the 28th president of the Republic of the Philippines, the wife of the 31st president, the sister of the 25th president and the half-sister of the 34th president. She was also part of the 17th, 19th-21st, 30th, 32nd, 34th and 35th Philippine Congress and was our candidate for the first Miss eRepublik.

One more party, MAHARLIKA, is yet to propose or support a candidate.

This election is going to be a very exciting one not just because of the two past presidents running again but also because the other two candidates are the ones being supported by the 3 biggest parties. Don't forget to vote smart.

In other news, fight hard to take back what is rightfully ours!
