sick and tired of Phillipine politics

I'm super sick and tired of watching phillipine news today in the television even reading the headlines or listening to short news from the radio...
2001 I was on my last year as a grader and it was January when the country was successful in the so called peoplepower to oust the president then, Joseph Estrada or Erap..... I could still remember we were on close watch with the latest news together with my parents since most of the rallys are in Manila the center or capital of the country. Vice president Gloria Arroyo replaced him and was re elected last ,may 2004 election.
Almost seven years passed and now our country is again facing another problem.....Another people power is working right now to ask The president to resign....
AS a filipino and part of this country ... I stand to let the president finish her term. I am not pro Gloria but allowing the president resign would only pose a more serious problem in the country. Besides who would best take over the president? Do you know any politician whom is corrupt free? a politician who havent received any single centavo as a donation or bribe from the private sectors or others? a politician who was never influenced by other people in decision making?
Imagine after all this riot, rallies and investigations and in case their succesful in puting the president down.... what would the next president be? what could he/she bring to the country?
Let us remember that the phillipines has luzon, Visayas and MIndanao with 7,101 islands. Manila is not Phillipines, it is the capital of the phillipine and they are about 80 million Filipino Citizens involved here.
If all the politicians will under thorough investigations, I doubt if there is any politician left clean.
I am against ccorruption, of course, but lets try to open our eyes to the reality that corruption is everywhere.
