YouTube - NINOY Aquino's memorable speech in Los Angeles (1/9)

I'm a big fan of Ninoy especially with his incredible speeches. If only he was our president at that time, who knows he might bring the Philippines to prosperity. Watch the full episodes.

Question 1: How can you relate Ninoy's speeches when he was elaborating the problems back in 70's and to the current issues in our country?
Question 2: Ninoy said about "Christian Socialism", is this activity is still present in our country?

Hahaha I shudder to think about how much worse our country would be now if he was president. To me, he was just another communist ideologue with a golden tongue with which he can fool naive idealists. Think Stalin, Pol Pot and Kim Sung Il. Those were all communist dictators who gave excellent speeches that could move millions to tears.

Question 1. See above re Stalin et al.

Question 2. "Christian Socialism"? Don't make me laugh. What in the world could that possibly be? Some kind of sick experiment in social engineering, no doubt. Thank God he didn't become our President, he did enough damage being a "hero" and would almost certainly have wrecked our country. You or I might not even be alive anymore, given his penchant for NPA death lists (he once bragged that he had a politician placed in one).
