Political Dynasty

I used to be against political dynasties. After hearing Buluan Vice Mayor Ishmael "Toto" Mangudadatu’s stance on Political Dynasties in the Philippines, I reconsidered. He said, Dynasties are for Families who simply appoints relatives to positions. The Philippines is still a Democratic country. As long as the people get to choose who will serve them, it doesn’t matter if the officials are from the same family. I was impressed.

Then, an Ampatuan government official made the same statement.

Lesson learned: I am gullible.
