As for the people you've listed such as Vic Sotto and Annabelle to be exact , their family has already have reputation in politics . Ruffa confirmed it that her mom was "offered" to run for Cebu North by his cousin Mayor Mike Rama . Annabelle's brother is a brgy captain for Basak .
Vic Sotto has a brother who is currently a Senator and related to Vicente Sotto and Filemon Sotto who were recognized as one of the best politicians in the history of this country .
I don't know about Alma Moreno's knowledge in politics but I know she married Joey Marquez who had a brief stint as a mayor in Paranaque . She is active in community outreach program in her city though .
We should give these people the benefit of the doubt . They may have different reasons as to why they're entering politics . Could be because they really want to help changing their constituency a better place , money or both . At the end of the day , Philippines is still a democratic country and ANYONE can run for office .
