I know people find that Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay has slim to none chances of winning the top position of the country in 2010. However, based on recent developments, he actually may assume the Presidency sometime after 2010. As most of you know, Former President Erap Estrada has been making the rounds together with Mayor Binay. I think it’s no secret anymore that Former President Estrada will be running again in 2010 and that Makati Mayor Binay has the highest chance of being his Vice President. “Erap” has already also said that if he were to win, he would only serve out the “remaining years” of his previous administration – then passing on the Presidency to the Vice President.

So if you think about it… if Binay is able to win the VP position if he tandems with Erap, he actually stands a chance of being the President. This of course assumes that the Supreme Court allows Erap to run again in 2010. This is a highly contentious issue that we will see get resolved once Erap files his certificate of candidacy in November.

Just something to think about.
