MANILA – Four presidential candidates gave strong performances at ANC’s “Harapan: The Presidential Forum” on Wednesday, according to several political and media analysts.
Among the experts’ favorites were Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino Jr., Sen. Richard “Dick” Gordon, former Defense Sec. Gilberto “Gibo” Teodoro Jr., and former President Joseph Ejercito Estrada.
Imaging expert Emily Abrera said Aquino, Teodoro, and Gordon made the most sense and “didn’t waffle” when they answered questions on morality, as well as their views on political dynasties, population control, insurgency, and President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s bid for a congressional seat.
Abrera said the candidates also appeared cool and collected, probably because they had prepared well for the forum.
“Regardless of the quality of their responses, Noynoy, Gibo, Gordon, and even Estrada – as witty as his answers were– directly answered the questions,” said polling firm Pulse Asia President Ronald D. Holmes.
The forum, held a day after the deadline of filing for certificates of candidacy, was held in partnership with Manila Bulletin, the Philippine Star, the University of Santo Tomas, and the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV).
“Harapan” is part of a series of election-related Forums and debates held by ABS-CBN in the run up to the 2010 polls. Other presidential candidates who joined the forum were Nicanor Perlas, JC de los Reyes, and Bro. Eddie Villanueva.
Improvements
Many of the top-ranked candidates at the forum showed improved performances compared to their previous showings at forums or informal surveys.
Marites Vitug, managing director ABS-CBN’s news website, abs-cbnNEWS.com, noted that Aquino was more composed than his prior appearances on live forums. “It’s hard to rank, but… tonight was a good showing by Aquino and Teodoro and Gordon,” she added.
Holmes said Teodoro was more specific about his plans for issues like the Ampatuan town massacre or how to dismantle political dynasties. “But that’s part of the platform of any candidate. Some came better prepared than others,” he said.
Based on an unscientific poll conducted by abs-cbnNEWS.com for the forum, Teodoro enjoyed a jump in voter preference based on perceived credibility.

I read the mentor program thread, and wanted in on that.
But really, I was unsure of wahat video to link to my application letter. So I made a whole new one just incase.
I tried to include some entertainment value!
But it’s just another short one.
Dick Gordon is best known for overcoming great odds in the Philippines.
In the 2004 national elections when he ran as senator of the Philippines, despite the initial low public opinion surveys, Gordon won and received the fifth highest number of votes from the electorate even without sectoral and religious command vote support. Filipinos warmly received his very positive personality and track record of achievements.
He passed the very first law in the 13th Congress, Republic Act No. 9333, fixing the regular elections at the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), and several other important laws, including Republic Act No. 9369, the New Automated Election System law; Republic Act No. 9334, the Sin Tax Law, Republic Act Nos. 9399 and 9400, fixing the tax regime in Special Economic Zones and Freeports in Clark in Pampanga, Poro Point in La Union; and John Hay in Baguio; Republic Act No. 9346, the abolition of the death penalty law; and Republic Act No. 9367, the Biofuels Act of 2007.
Furthermore, as Chairman of the Senate Committee of Consitutional Amendements and Revision of Laws, he upheld the supremacy of the Constitution at all times. Though he may not have voted for the ratification of the 1987 Constitution, he took an oath to preserve and defend it. He insisted on the lawful process of charter change only according to the process set forth in the Constitution. He opposed the unconstitutional People’s Initiative and was one of the triumphant parties in the case of Lambino and Aumentado vs. COMELEC, G.R. No. 174153, October 25, 2006.
He also preserved the separation of powers in government and asserted the Senate’s constitutional right and duty to conduct inquiries in aid of legislation against Executive Order No. 464 in Senate, et al. vs. Ermita, G.R. No. 169777, April 20, 2006, and Executive Order No. 1 in Sabio vs. Gordon, et al., G.R. No. 174340, October 17, 2006.
In 2001, he transformed the moribund Philippines Tourism industry: plagued by a negative image of kidnappings and SARS disease and complicated by an era of continued threat of terrorism. As Secretary of Tourism he accomplished this with his campaign: “WOW Philippines! More than the usual!” This resulted to increased tourist arrivals that rejuvenated the industry, becoming the country’s acknowledged fastest way to address poverty and unemployment. In addition, in his capacity as World Tourism Organization (WTO) Commissioner for East Asia and the Pacific in 2002 and Chair of the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) for 2003, he became the chief advocate of Third World countries that have been unduly affected in tourism and trade by unfair Travel Advisories imposed by Western governments…..more
