    I've been asked a few times how much politicians pay us Americans for our votes. They always think I'm joking at first and then move on to complete disbelief when I explain we have passed that limit the amount of money an individual can give a politician.

    My wife was listening to Duterte on the BBM and he was saying that he is the most corrupt politician but it's your choice. Being a populist president, I wonder if that will make any difference.

    I was just reading an article about the PI elections and this quote made me cringe.
    "We don't believe the history books anymore, we have have social media"
    This was with respect to rewriting the history of a certain political family.
