Not wanting to let the members of a small Facebook group down, I decided to tweet out an article where the leader of the small Facebook group claims that former Makati Representative Teddy Locsin Jr. was convinced to support parliamentary shift because of their articles.
The leader says:
He (Locsin) got exposed to the numerous literature (articles and videos) that CoRRECT had created and got passed around, and thanks to the buzz that we created in making it a very important issue to look into, he not only took a second look, he also looked into the merits of why the parliamentary system is superior to the presidential system.
Locsin answered:
@paulfarol Not meaning to deride their efforts but I only read stuff written by white people, like Lind, Dahl, Bagheot, Macaulay, Burke.— Teddy Locsin Jr. (@teddyboylocsin) May 9, 2012
