Mirrors

Marcos and Ninoy were enemies because they can understand each other and read each others' minds. Essentially they are the same. Change only occurred in Ninoy when he was sent to jail and was excommunicated.

Bongbong Marcos is not Marcos the dictator, in the same way that Noynoy is not Ninoy.

Bongbong's election to the position of Senator did not come about through the infamy of his surname alone but also through merit. His achievements as Governor of Ilocos Norte were remarkeable.

Noynoy on the other hand banked on the adoration of the Filipino people for his deceased parents. He would need to achieve twice as much as them to be able to step out of their shadows and at the same time, he would need to be very careful as not to tarnish the legacy of the Aquino heroes.
