Can Bayani Fernando really DUET?

Well, among the current crops of president wannabe’s, BF is my most probable bet. What with his no-nonsense political will that enforces law no matter who gets hit. That is why he caught the ire of a former MMDA chairman (also a wannabe), because BF has accomplished what was only in his drawing board, to say the least.
But BF’s inclusion in the Celebrity Duet is I guess not a very smart move, as far as his political plan is concern. Sure, he can carry a tune, but that’s not the point here. I fear that this will actually be used against him, politicians being the ever-resourceful and creative people that they are, can turn this action of the MMDA chairnman to their advantage.
Already, he is being hit left and right because of his MMDA campaign posters which are all over Metro Manila. Unfortunately, I have to agree with them. I have seen these posters during my trips to Manila, and I must say that there are really too many of them, and honestly, they are not an eye candy.
Now comes another media, the television, which BF wishes to explore - whether he admit it or not. He’ll be lucky if he won’t be charged with electioneering as he has already been quoted with “Please vote for me….” quickly adding that he is not yet referring to 2010. Because contestants fate are decided via text votes, hence BF got away with the statement… for now.
Come 2010 and unless a better candidate comes out in the light, Bayani Fernando is my most probable candidate. Because he has produces results, and can always back up his actions no matter unpopular they may be. He has shown what political will really is. I do hope that this Celebrity Duets tryst won’t affect his stature as a leading contender for 2010. Honestly, I want him to be eliminated early on in the contest, because I really believe such exposure is not helpful for his campaign.

[...] this blog, questioning not only Bayani Fernando’s singing prowess but also the means by which he peddles his presidentiable aspirations. [...]
I believe that what he had in mind is just the exposure. BF is not so well known yet in the Visayas and Mindanao regions. Channel 7 can help him in this regard. I don’t know Bayani Fernando personally but because I am a Marikina resident, I know that his intentions is always to improve the lot of Filipinos. I know it in my heart. Gut feel. He has done it here in Marikina.
Thanks and Cheers!
thanks for the comment. like I said, I am for BF, yet his participation in the contest is a gamble actually. it could be used against.
I like what he is doing with MMDA
thanks again.
Yeah.. I agree with lotusflower. Its just for BF’s exposure. And I am excited about it. It would be better if he will win as it will sky-rocket his popularity especially in the provinces. Its also better if his running mate is a celebrety or someone who has a connections to media ( its just like what Marcos did with Lopez ). But I know BF has a better, concrete plans for this. For those pro-BF. Lets not hope that BF will win. LET US BELIEVE that he is our NEXT-PRESIDENT. Just like what he always do. The law of attraction will work here….. BF our NEXT PRESIDENT ( after GMA!!!! )…
You said he can back up his actions no matter unpopular they may be. Very true. I actually laugh at the people trying to oppose him because he always has something to reply and get back at those people, using their own medicine. Haha.
I’ve watched him last time and oh my, he can really sing! Hindi rin naman pala siya lagi stiff…
BF is a guy who can visualize the big picture and can zoom in into minute details. I must agree with you all that his participation in the show is for media exposure - a key enabler of his grand vision for our country. I have no doubt about it. I have been reading all the news about him - even from those who hate him. And I can say, that he is aggressively executing his action plans to become our NEXT PRESIDENT! I believe this plan has been in the making in the last decade…

I accidentally bumped on this article which was written by a group of Bisayans who called themselves “Circle of Founding Fathers”. This article by Yahoo as the besty answer to the question “who is your preferred next president of the Philippines”.
To wit:
“Whenever somebody ask who is the NEXT president of the Philippines, the top of the brand answer is always BAYANI FERNANDO…why?
Just like the rest of them, I also prefer BAYANI FERNANDO as the next president because…….
1. While Money Villar is working hard for money…insertions,behest loans, influence peddling, Bayani Fernando is in the field directing MMDA staff in fixing the drainage and water system of the squatters of Recto in front of Isetannn. Well, Bayani Fernando together with the Three Tenors, also raised money once in a while ….by singing and the beneficiaries are often the Churches and charitable institutions. Bayani Fernando agreed to join the Celebrity Duets and dont wonder if he donate half of his prize to the Caritas. Bayani Fernando has a soft heart for the Church because he was a Church worker (sacristan, yes, just like Basilio and Crispin), when he was a small boy.
2. While Noli de Castro is leaving his first wife to marry a Muslim, Bayani Fernando was in EDSA Revolution with his construction equipments blocking the pro - Marcos tanks from open firing on the armless people in EDSA.
3. While Mar Roxas is stalking Korina Sanchez ..appearing like a jologs teenager crazilly smittened with the oozing sex appeal of Korina, BAYANI FERNANDO is appearing presidentiable by sending people to typhoon stricken Panay.
4. While Ping Lacson is being haunted by the public in the Kuratong and Dacer cases…. BAYANI FERNANDO will look at you straight in the eye and say in a charming Marikina accent na”wala pa syang pinapapatay sa buong buhay nya maski sino”.
5. While Loren Legarda is marrying a married man now accused of murder, BAYANI FERNANDO has been a loyal husband to Marikina Mayor Marides Carlos Fernando (daughter of the old rich industrialist Meneleo Carlos) and a doting father to his only child Tala Fernando.
6. “MAREA FROM Heaven” was dominating the political grapevine when GMA 7 featured the MAREA Marcos, Aquino, Ramos, Ejercito and Arroyo in a primetime. FROM is Fernando, Roxas, probably Osmena again and probably Magsaysay again. Then HEAVEN, which is still too mystrious to predict. Then GMA 7 invited Bayani Fernando to join the Celebrity Duets and FVR has revealed a “slip of the tongue” in an speaking engagement that the next president is a bayani (hero) and a pink panther which of course he clarified the next day…the usual psywar charm of the dear FVR.
7. Then there was a talk that Noli de Castro accepted a “downpayment’ for him to run for reelection as VP, and not as President.
8.. Then the “C5 at Taga” scandal which effectively cut down Money Villar to a money making businessman masquerading as a public servant.
9. Then people are printing BAYANI FERNANDO stickers and paste them in their cars….and reports have it that this BAYANI FERNANDO stickers and poster are sprouting all over the country.
What is really MAREA FROM HEAVEN? It is the mysterious spirit that put an ordinary housewife, a lowly paid professional soldier and a college drop out into the Philippine presidency…(But hey, the Atheist group of UP Diliman is promoting the MAREA DeVil Team..whatever that is….)
Well, all said, the direction is pointing to BAYANI FERNANDO becoming the next president….the script is FROM HEAVEN…..”

What really scares me is that BF’s tack just might work. *shudder* Even though BF may not have that many supporters, vis-a-vis Villar or Noli who have vast amounts of money and machinery at their disposal, BF’s supporters are loyal and avid. A group of them have even taken time to make up this “marea from heaven” bullcrap and posted it all over the internet. It’s all over the place. It’s either that, or one of BF’s enemies has the crass craftiness of circulating disgusting propaganda in BF’s name.
