In keeping with the conviction that the Internet is a forum for the voice of the people to be heard, we asked Noy’s Facebook fans, “Bakit nais ninyong kay Noy ipagkatiwala ang kinabukasan ng ating bayan?” In two days, we got 200 responses. Here’s some of the responses, unscripted, unedited, undirected. Take a look at what YOU got to say.
Marcelino Abantao Noy is the only one with a noble cause…he will continue what Ninoy and Tita Cory started…to truly fight for the Filipino’s welfare unselfishly! Fri at 8:59pm
Cecille Sangalang Tello Sapagkat ang kailangan ng ating bansa ngayon ay HINDI LAMANG talino at galing (na ganumpaman ay siguradong mayroon ang ating pambato–mahuhusay ang kanyang mga magulang), kundi higit ang PUSO at KALINISAN ng INTENSYON.
Ang isang pangulo, hindi man sobrang talino, na tapat sa tungkulin at may malinis na puso (maraming pwedeng maging mahusay na mga tauhan itong pangulong ito) ay mamumuno nang buong katapatan at base lamang sa kung ano ang mahusay para sa nakararami.
Kilala na natin kung sino ang karapat-dapat sa mga panahong ito.. Hindi sapat ang husay, bagkus ay KATAPATAN at KALINISAN ng adhika ang kailangan. Fri at 9:07pm
Fn Ln korek da jan cecille sangalang tello, meron nga magaling na ekonomista, yun pala magaling mag corrupt at super daya pa Fri at 9:17pm

Ana Divina Tumaque Carreon i felt like, Him as President, mahihiya ang mga ulupong n gumawa ng kagaguhan sa gobierno kc ang namumuno ay hindi corrupt! Fri at 9:51pm
Mary Jane Bugante-Usman Dahil si Noynoy ay may puso at malinis syang tao. Mataas ang moralidad at hinde magnanakaw at higit sa lahat may takot sa Diyos. Hinde sya gutom sa kapangyarihan, di tulad ng iba jan na halang ang mga kaluluwa at ang hangad lamang ay magnakaw sa kaban ng bayan. Fri at 9:57pm

Eugene G. Concepcion marahil di siya katulad ng iba na mahilig gumawa ng ingay sa senado dahil sa ambisyong politikal, mga taong nais ipagsigwan ang talino at galing ngunit madali rin palang bumabaluktot ang katwiran pag dating sa ambisyon. di hamak na mas simple ngunit tuwirang may kinalaman sa kabutihan ng nakararami ang kaniyang mga nagawa at gagawin palang para sa kapwa Pilipino.. Mabuhay ka NoY!
sana sa araw ng election sa 2010 ay ipagsigwan sa lahat ng station ng radio ang awiting minsang nagpsiklab sa damdamin nating mga Filipino noong 1986 edsa “handog ng pilipino sa mundo..”nakakaantig at nakakapukaw ng damdamin upang ang lahat ay muling magkaisa at di malinlang ng mga mandaraya…. Fri at 10:27pm
Yolly Cenas With his record and being a son to Ninoy & Cory, I fully trust him. Not being interested in power and living simply, he will not be a corrupt president and will uphold our democratic constitution. Lastly, I see hope of a better Philippines because he inspires many Filipinos to dream, and after May 10, 2010, he will lead us to act together for a great Philippines. Fri at 10:31pm

Zarah Gonez Bacoto There was this interview with the late Pres Cory Aquino that I saw as part of the tribute for her. One segment was an interview with one of her daughter (not sure if It was Kris or Ballsy) but she recalled an event during her Mom’s presidency that she accompanied her mom to a state visit. When she asked why her mom paid for her air fare instead, she simply replied that it was not good/proper that a personal expense be carried by the gov’t mny or something like that. This anecdote simply states that Pres Cory raised her children to be just, upright, honest, God fearing and one who truly loves the Filipino people. Even Kris Aquino pays her taxes well even if it was millions in peso. We may not know much about Noy but her family name alone speak for who he is. NOYNOY AQUINO. Hindi ka nag iisa. Lead us and we will follow. Fri at 11:53pm

A Noynoy Presidency needs no platform. I think it is clear in every Filipino what we mostly desire which only Noy could fully embody. Sat at 11:58am

I must say, I am considering Noy to be my president ‘coz of the trust I have with his parents. He was raised to be a leader I suppose. Even if he is not married, he has stood to be the family’s father-figure. Their family has also stood above trials. In many ways, Noy can be a very good leader in our country. The fact that he and Mar are all together allies from the start doesn’t give me a doubt. You can see that they can bring forth unity in this country. What I am hoping is that other leaders from the local governments to the senator will also do their part to realize that unity. Yes, Noy and Mar can be good leaders but as we all know, not all corruption happen in the higher positions but even in the lowest of ranks (brgy. captains). I love the fact that Noy’s candidacy is brought about by his love for our country. As we all know, LOVE conquers all. We can only move forward as a nation when everyone learns to love one’s country. Thus, paying respect to it as well as its people. We must strive to learn to love Philippines just as Ninoy and Cory did. Let us start from our own very self. As the ads says…AKO MISMO! AKO ANG SIMULA!

I wanted my son to live in a government of HONESTY and INTEGRITY, he is only five years old and I wanted a strong foundation for his being, a foundation not only built inside our home and his school but a foundation molded by his nation through an HONEST leadership from NOY. I do not want my son to grow thinking that CORRUPTION is NORMAL. NOY is the only Presidentiable that has this quality. I have been saying before that CORY is my one and only PRESIDENT, but when NOY decided to run, dalawa na sila. Its just so sad that Villar’s camp is now starting to destroy and character assassinate NOY, at ang nagsasalita nito na kasama nya na si BOYING REMULLA ay halos sambahin dati si JOSEPH ESTRADA. Imagine the kind of politics that these people do, iniwan si JOSEPH, ngayon na kay VILLAR, at iyan po ang nagagawa ng pera at kapangyarihan. PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES, please, please, its about time for us to unite for a BETTER AND HONEST PHILIPPINES…. Let us all unite for a common candidate. . . . NOY – HINDI KA NAGIISA!!!!

Noynoy For President,mga kababayan,ipagdasal natin na maging maayos ang halalan ngayong 2010 sa Pilipinas.Noong nabubuhay pa si Ninoy hinabilin kay Noynoy ang kanyang inang si Cory at ang kanyang mga kapatid,kaya naman palagi siya sa tabi ng kanyang ina at sibling,hindi naman kaila sa atin na iyon ay kanyang nagampanan,kahit parang minsan napapansin natin na parang nakakalimutan na niya ang kanyang sarili at laging inaalala ang habilin ng kanyang ama,sa parteng yan nagampanan niya bakit di niya yon magagawa sa ating bansa,kagaya nang sinabi ni Noynoy,kung ano ang inumpi-sahan ng kanyang mga magulang ay kanya itong ipagpapatuloy.Sa kanyang kabataan- kanya itong nasubaybayan kaya marami na siyang natutuhan na lalo na sa malaking pagbabago para sa kabutihan ng ating mga kababayan lalo na sa ika-uunlad ng ating bansang Pilipinas,pero di niya ito magagawa kung di tayo tutulong sa kanya,kaya ang moto natin Si Noynoy di ka nag-iisa,GO NOY!GO NOY for President!!!!We are on your side especially GOD IS WITH YOU!!!!!

kung ano ang ipinapakita ng magulang ay sya ring ipapakita at ipapamalas ni NOYNOY AQUINO sa darating na hahalan taong 2010, hindi lamang talino at husay sa pamamalakad ng ating pamahalaan and kinakailangan upang maisulba ang katiwalian, dapat ay may sapat na integridad at katapan sa pamumuno ng ating bansa at ito ang ang taong may angkop na galing at pinagkakatiwalaan ng maraming sambayanang PILIPINO, ang hahatak sa panibagong reporma na kong saan walang tiwali, kagarukan at kabuktutan na mangyayari sa ating bansa, NOY ang tiwalang ibinibigay ng sambayanang PILIPINO ay sanay makamtan at mapasakamay hindi lamang ng mga kabataan kundi ng boong sambayanan, Alam ng lahat na ikaw ay isa sa mga tutol sa corruption, sa mga mahihirap at tiwaling pamamahala hiling ko lamang ay sanay maglingkod ka ng may tiwala sa sarili at tiwala sa DIYOS na syang magbibigay ng maayos at payapang pamamalakad sa ating pamahalaan hiling korin na sana ang mga salitang binibitiwan mo ay maging totoo sa isip, puso at gawa wag kasanang maging katulad ng iba na pagkatapos ng kaylangan ay wala na.
Bilang isa sa mga kabataang Pilipino sa ngayon, Malaki ang suportang ibibigay ko sa kandidatura dahil maytiwala ako sayo… Be with your self always trust almighty above and yet you well.

What the country needs now is a moral leader, who can openly talk about corruption and who could look straight in our eyes and say that he will limit corruption and fight for a transparent government. That’s the best asset of Senator Aquino, and because of this, some of his rivals are now throwing mud to taint his name. But with all of this politicking of other candidates, the truth will be told…
Another observation is that the Liberal Party must now have its concrete programs and platforms from which all of its candidates’ campaign will stand on. It must be published or disseminated to all volunteers and supporters, and allies of the party so that all of us will know what vision of the country the party has.
This election will be platform-based with the candidates’ profiles and credibility being the measure of whether they can deliver these programs.
Do not be complacent. Do not be confident. Strengthen the people’s belief by giving them your vision of a better Philippines…

Senator Noynoy’s heart and dedication is enough para pagkatiwalaan sya dahil alam ko na HINDI sya gagawa ng anumang katiwalian.Walang kabuluhan ang pagiging matalino ng isang kandidato kung nasa panig naman ito ng katiwalian at kasinungalingan. Tama sila, talino ang panglaban ng iba, talino kung paano maiisahan ang mamamayan, talino kung paano malulustay ang kaban ng bayan. God bless the Philippines, God bless Senator Noynoy!

I hope tayong mga Pilipino ay matuto na sa atin past experienced regarding sa pagpipili ng atin Binoboto sa anuman posisyon sa atin pamahalaan. Dito sa mundo ng politika marami talaga ang mga balatkayo, maraming mapanirang puri, maraming gahaman sa kapangyarihan. Kaya nga si Noynoy ang iboboto ko sampu nga akin pamilya dahil alam ko siya lang ang di mapagbalatkayo, di mapanirang puri, di gahaman sa kapangyarihan. Let’s us all join in full force para suportahan si Noynoy Aquino and Mar Roxas.

Sawang-sawa na ko sa klase ng pamamahala ni GMA! I hope with the current trend and scenarios where the masses are hoping, expecting and looking forward to untarnished governance by Noynoy in 2010 our country willl go back to the kind of leadership of Mrs. Cory Aquino in 1986. Noynoy I just want you to know na sobrang idol ko ang mommy at daddy mo kaya pls lang huwag mo sanang sasayangin ang boto namin syo. My unsolicited advice to you is that you should follow what Mr. Romulo told you before in the newspaper, where he said there na be careful with the kind of people surrounding you, yung mga politikong mga oportunista lang at pwedeng makaimpluwensya para magkaroon ng bahid dungis ang pagkatao at pamumuno nyo ni Mar Roxas sa LP. Ganoon din ang opinion sa ‘yo ni Mr. Randy David sa column niya sa Phillippine Star, Nov. 21.
Also alam mo ang vision ko sa bansa natin ay maging isang developed country in the future. And the oil problem be solved by government support sa mga oil drillings throughout the country para naman mabalanse ang dependence natin sa mga oil companies, and mabalik sana ang regulation ng gobyerno sa langis. Lastly, sana mabigyan naman ng malaking pagpapahalaga ang mga filipino inventors at scientists natin through government support in solving our economic problems and for the betterment of the Philippines! Noy and Mar mabuhay kayo!
