I am glad we share the same beliefs although I don't agree that we are but a small minority. I think the past 3 years has convinced similar minded people that there is hope for our country because of the Daang Matuwid. This is not to say that we will just passively watch developments. We still have to be vigilant but at the same time refrain from too much pessimism. Second guessing the president and criticizing even before we know what he's really up to is the bigger roadblock that you mentioned.
The president is no magician who will just wave a wand to improve our country. Mistakes are inevitable especially when burning a new trail. Results has to be weighed. Three years into the job, the verdict not only among our people but also from around the world, has been very favorable. In my life, never have I seen so much optimism for the future. Look at this appointment as a step towards upgrading the lives of the poor who has been left behind in the country's economic success rather than judge this action as a political payback or ploy. Three years of relative success, I think, deserves a benefit of the doubt. The bottom line is: will it help the people?.
