  2. Who should be the next President of the Philippines?
  3. What do you want Sen. NoyNoy Aquino to run for in 2010?
  4. Are you in favor of Erap running again for president in the upcoming 2010 elections?
  5. Are you in favor of GMA running again for any elective post in the upcoming 2010 elections?
  6. Is it worth it for Prof. Randy David to run for a Congressional seat in Pampanga against GMA?
  7. Are you in favor of World Boxing Champion Manny Pacquiao running for Congress in the upcoming 2010 elections?
  8. Are you in favor of bishops, priests, nuns or brothers running for any elective position?
  9. Is it time to amend the Philippine Constitution?
  10. When is the best time to amend the Philippine Constitution?
  11. What mode do you prefer to amend the Philippine Constitution?
In summary, the results of the random online surveys revealed the following among various Ehem networks:
