Erap to run as President in 2010

"This is the last performance of my life."

Erap formally declared and swore, that he will run as President in the 2010 Election, under the party of PDP-Laban, Partido ng Masang Pilipino and United Opposition. He made this announcement in front of thousands of cheering supporters at Plaza Hernandez in Tondo, Manila.

He also announced that Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay shall be his running mate as Vice-President. He also announced his senatorial slate, which includes Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, Senator Jinggoy Estrada, Congressman Teddy Boy Locsin, Congressman Bongbong Marcos, General Danny Lim, Mr. Joey de Venecia, Mr. Koko Pimentel and two guest candidates, Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago and Congressman Ompong Plaza.

I shall make my legal comment later.

The decision if Erap can run will surely be decided by the Supreme Court. On the other hand does he really intend to run? Maybe he is just doing political maneuvering to extract concessions and favors from other politicians and then withdraw.

We will have to see if Erap actual files his candidacy at the Comelec.
