Although I was born to famous parents, I know and feel the problems of ordinary citizens.

My father offered his life so our democracy could live. My mother devoted her life to nurturing that democracy. I will dedicate my life to making our democracy reach its fullest potential: that of ensuring equality for all. My family has sacrificed much, and I am willing to do this again if necessary.

As far as same-sex marriage, I really would want to think about that a lot more given the fact that my focus would be always on the child. The innocent should not be given more even burdens than what is absolutely necessary.

My administration's compact with the Filipino people will demand no less than the attainment of lasting peace and equitable prosperity. We will employ all the tools at our disposal to achieve this.

I had a simple goal in life: to be true to my parents and our country as an honorable son, a caring brother, and a good citizen.

Pictorial is something that I am not used to. You have to pose, smile, bend your arm, straighten up, look to the left.
