    No Jack, he cannot make that decision unilaterally - it will have to be approved by both houses before he can sign it into law. However, he will have enough yeah-sayers to get it pushed through. There's no way in hell he can get this done before the elections, but he is only paving the path for his future successor: his beloved son. Don't forget: we are talking about the Binay dynasty here. He is one of the few that shows any signs of being able to think about things in the future, and that makes him the one-eyed king in the land of the blind..

    I agree it should help his campaign out and that it makes sense....but when it comes politics in the Philippines what "should" happen rarely does. He just better hope that Manny or that ladyboy on all the local game shows/drama2x shows/movies doesn't run. The fact that a Marcos is considering running and has a ton of supporters should tell you that things aren't quite right in the Philippines.

    On the contrary: His push for this constitutional amendment would potentially increase foreign investment and subsequently create more jobs for the common John Doe equivalent. When sold properly on the campaign trail, this would increase his potential. I leave my personal views on the person out of this....
