When I was about 12 years old, The administration of Joseph Eztrada, who was then Philippine President was in the brink of collapse. The President and the First Family were involved in an illegal gambling scandal called Jueteng. President Eztrada was them put into a controversial Impeachment trial. The nation stay tuned on all means of media to keep up to date with the trial. Regular TV programings nationwide was changed to makeway for the Trial coverage. Big TV networks set-up small studio-like quarters provided by the Senate within the Senate Building. It might be the highest top-rating program ever as millions of Filipinos in and out of the country stay tuned.

5 and Up(children's program hosted by kids of 5-15 years of age) was still being aired in GMA& that time. They did reports regarding the Presidential Crisis. I saw this interview of Atty. Fortun (one of Eztrada's lawyers) by a young femal upper (5 and Up host). She brought up a good question to Atty. Fortun: Is Joseph Eztrada a good President?...   Well he is a good man, answered Atty. Fortun. But a good man doesn't necessarily make a good President, she replied quickly. The lawyer paused for a second, and from that point I don't quite remember what happened next. All I remember was that Atty. Fortun was astounded by what she said. I might be wrong but I think he wasn't able to answer.

Now the country is facing another Presidential Crisis, this time President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and the First Family are involved in Election Frauds & Jueteng Scandal. Now I would like to ask the same question is Arroyo a good President? or was she even a good person?
