The presidency is a calling and a responsibility to the Filipino people, and should not be an obsession.
Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson stressed this on Sunday as he noted those who make the presidency an obsession resort to lying, destroying others – or making fools of themselves.
“If you make the presidency an obsession, you will lie, deceive, destroy others, even make a fool of yourself to win it. Best to treat is as a calling, a responsibility and an obligation to the people,” he said in a post on his Twitter account Sunday morning, before heading for Catarman in Northern Samar for his and Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III’s Online Kumustahan.
