What, you would say, has that got to do with Filipinos?
Very simple, like the Americans, we are a nation of many different parts - we have regional characteristics and sometimes these traits serve to divide us as a nation. I say pooh to that. We, like them, must come together as a people, and move for the greater good.

We dont have much time. Dec 21 looms. *winks*
