How do you select the most deserving persona to be elected as the 16th President of the Philippines? Do you know who you’re voting for? In less than two months, the entire nation will be voting for the next honourable ruler of the country — the leader who continues in making good policy decisions for our country’s future for the next six years after the elections. You are now probably contemplating to know more about the most interesting bits on these ‘presidentiables’, and there is still much to know about their platforms. Since we don't know them on a personal level, as Filipinos, we must do our stint by knowing their past and present notion on issues that affects us as a nation. Comelec declared a 90-day campaign period and the countdown has just started for the 2016 Philippine elections slated for May 9. Whether you already have a Presidential candidate in mind or not, it’s very important to research about them. In this article, I give you a ‘precis’ at the profiles of the two women contenders for the presidential race in the Philippines this year namely Senator Grace Poe- Llamanzares as an independent candidate and Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago of the People’s Reform Party. This article is compiled not only to give incentive for the ‘presidentibles’ to be further known, but it would also educate and encourage voters to use a new norm in voting based on morals and principles of the candidate. We need someone who can identify ideas and who can really put those ideas into action. We can prepare; we can think and we can focus; and make sure that your vote is a precise vote. Please choose wisely and vote responsibly. *************************************************************************************
