For years in public office &#8211; in attending official functions and their corresponding brotherly relations with their electorates &#8211; they are already used to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Simply put,&nbsp; the complexities in public office are no longer new to them.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">But, how about the newly-elected officials?

The manner of choice in that particular election is also improving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Most candidates in a barangay or municipal election, are either secondary graduates or degree holders already. And, the electorates are seemed to be improving also in their selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">NOW, they prefer college graduates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In the Pre-Martial Law days electoral process, <em>Short Cuts<\/em> is never wanting of an experience in barangay and municipal elections. He, himself, participated both in barangay and muncipal elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">First, he ran for Municial Councilor in his fourth class Municipality of Valencia.

Not one of them had ever entered college course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The result?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">He handily won the elections! That, despite the handicap in his inavailability to join in the daily campaign with his political team in the thirty five&nbsp; barangays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Through political leaflets only, the electorates knew the educational qualifications of <em>Short Cuts<\/em> as a candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Second, he ran for Barangay Captain. He was the only lawyer ever elected as Barangay Captain in his barangay and the whole town in that election year. Until these days, he remains to be the only lawyer to be elected as a Baragangay Captain in the town.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">As a Barangay Captain armed with that educational qualification, he was able to construct the first covered court in the whole municipality despite budgetary inadequacies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Through solicitations, he succeeded in doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">For an undergraduate barangay official, can he do the same?
