POLITICAL CHARISMA PHILIPPINE STYLE EXPLAINED

By Bayawanon

My personal definition of CHARISMA is the state of anyone of being loved even if he/she is undesirable. There are many political people whose leadership styles are not good but keep on winning during election seasons, they win because of buying votes, threats, intimidation, duress and cheating and yet the people are not tired of re-electing them even if after the elections it becomes apparent that they abuse their political powers by having access to government transactions for personal gains, siphoning the funds of the government that are entrusted to them to the detriment of the state and worst is when they start to violate the rights of the common people who ironically elected them to office.

These political charismatics are everywhere in the country and they even keep on thriving because of the political immaturity of the people who elected them who do not know what principles are all about, and who only follow the call of money because of dire necessity and of too much nothingness. These type of voters are willing to sell their votes just to remedy the hunger that they experience in exchange of years of political suffering and hopelessness.

What saddens me more is this, the political traitors who plundered and betrayed the country who actually need to be thrown and jailed in the limbo of oblivion because of their undoing become more popular and desirable because of the power of social media which are being used by them and their families as a vehicle for their political propaganda painting them to be heroes, statesmen and political pragmatists when in truth and in fact they were plunderers, non respecter of human rights and traitors to the country, its people and its interest. Most of the victims of these type of political charismatics are the mellineals who do not know the atrocities and the loot that these type of leaders were doing decades ago, these new generation members would easily believe on the information fed on them without proper research and investigation.

Because of the power of the money of these political magicians, intelligent people are lured to be their propagandists in exchange of money, fame and/or influence, for the former to rain and flood information in the social media, print media, air waves and television channels to make them supermen and eventually install them in the pedestal of greatness. That's the way political charismatics are formed or made of in our beloved country, the pearl of the Orient Seas, the Philippines, and the sad truth is this, this become possible because the people especially the new generation do not care about their future or maybe they're simply becoming too politically naive or ignorant to the extent that they cannot manage to unravel truth from falsehood.
