Glad your predictions and that of the entire Filipino nation were incorrect…. Once again, the P.I. is on the wrong side of history… I’m elated, as an Armed Forces member, that my Commander-in-Chief is a member of the race that built the greatest country ever to exist and died for civil rights! I fell to my knees and cried!
The Philippines will be remembered for once again being on the wrong side of history! 1 of only 2 countries… And I can appreciate Georgia’s suuport for McCain considering thier political and militaristic situation and the support employed by President Bush ti aid them. But the Filipinos simply wanted McCain to win because he’s Mestiza… Who cares what Filipinos think anyway? They aren’t true Americans… They’re “benefit” seekers and gold diggers… What have they done for America? Nothing…
