Hello! Good question. FPGMA has been re-elected (and was allowed to run in 2004 for the presidency) since Article 7 Section 4 states that: "... No person who has succeeded as President and has served as such for more than four years shall be qualified for election to the same office at any time." She succeeded Erap in 2001 and has served the unexpired term of the latter (which is less than 4 years since the term is set to expire in 2004). If Gloria had succeeded Erap around 1998-2000, she wouldn't have had the opportunity to run again in 2004. I was not able to put that on the video so thank you very much for this question!
There are three things I would like to add in the Constitution before a Filipino could be qualified to run for the Presidency: 1. Must be a college graduate It is honestly and bitterly surprising to learn that an educational requirement is not included for a President's qualification. Hence, I would add that a running-President must be a degree holder and should submit proof of being a college graduate. 2. Must submit SALN To prevent and ensure that a running-President does not have an unexplained wealth, he/she must have submitted his/her Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth prior to election. A candidate would only be declared qualified to run if he/she submit his/her SALN. Otherwise, he/she would not be eligible for Presidency. 3. Must have an experience in other government branches Competence and knowledge are one of the key qualities a President must have, wherein both are best observed through experience. A running-President must have at least worked under the two other branches of the government-legislative and judiciary, that will allow them to be an expert in meddling and deciding upon bills best for the masses before its enactment. - Reamillo, Ruth (BABr 2-4D)
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, the following are the 3 additional qualifications: 1.

Educational attainment: presidential candidate must have a strong educational background, with at least a college degree. 3. Credibility: presidential candidate must have a track record of honesty, as it is considered more credible and trustworthy. They build trust that they will protect the public interest and fulfill their promises.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, I would add the following: 1. Completed a bachelor's degree. I truly believe that whilst we can offer everyone a chance to lead the country, we must still value knowledge and competency. By graduating with a degree, we know that the future president will not only be able to read and write but also has skill to lead the country. 2. No Criminal Record No thief, no murderer, and no human rights violator allowed! The future president should have a clean record to assure that the citizen's comfort, security, and future will never be compromised. 3. Public Service Experience The candidate must have an experience in serving for the people and to the people. By having this, the candidate will be able to emphatize to the citizens but will be able to have great knowledge what the citizens specially the marginalize sector are experiencing.
If given the opportunity to amend the constitution and establish three additional qualifications for the presidency, I would propose the following: 1. The President must hold a college degree in a field relevant to governance, such as political science, law, economics, or a related discipline. This ensures a foundational understanding of key issues and principles essential for effective leadership. 2. Candidates must publicly disclose a comprehensive record of their financial status, including income, assets, and liabilities. This transparency fosters trust and accountability, allowing citizens to make informed decisions about the candidates' financial integrity and potential conflicts of interest. 3. Candidates must have a proven track record of effective leadership and accountability in their professional or public service careers. This requirement emphasizes the importance of practical experience and achievements in managing responsibilities.
1.

Must have a proven track record of their experiences in the government before or should at least have a minimum numbers of proven experience in public service to see how effective they are as a leader in their respective fields. 3. Should have a strong commitment to upholding human rights principles, including equality and dignity for every individuals. And having the ability to effectively resolve conflicts that's important in maintaining unity and stability within their country.
If were given the chance to amend the Constitution and add 3 more qualifications for the presidency, I would suggest the following: 1. A presidential candidate should have a strong educational background. They should be required to have a minimum of a bachelor’s degree in political science, law, economics, or any related field. 2. A presidential candidate should have at least 10 years of experience in a government role like being a governor or senator. This is to ensure the public that they have a full understanding of governmental processes and leadership responsibilities. 3. A presidential candidate should have no conflicts of interest. They should also be financially transparent. They should have a full disclosure of their personal and family records, including tax returns, and a commitment to divest from any business interests that could pose a conflict of interest.
If given the chance to amend the constitution, I would suggest the following qualifications for presidency: Educational background: Education is crucial for personal and national success. The President, as a major role model, should have a college degree. Experience in public service: The presidency should not be a training ground. The President needs at least 10 years of experience in public service to understand how the government works and reduce the risk of incompetence. No criminal record: To promote peace and uphold moral leadership, the President should have a clean record without any criminal history.
If given the chance to amend the constitution, the following are the three (3) other qualifications for the presidency I would add: 1. PhD Holder in Relevant Field -Requiring the President of the Philippines to hold a Ph.D. could have several potential benefits that emphasize the importance of advanced education and expertise such as research and innovation skills, advanced knowledge, and critical thinking, and also it promotes meritocracy. 2. Free from any criminal record -Requiring a clean criminal record for the presidency ensures that the country's leader upholds high ethical standards, commands public trust, and is committed to serving the nation with integrity. 3. Public Service Experience -Requiring at least 6 years of experience in public service ensures familiarity or a solid understanding of government operations and public administration. With these three additions to presidential qualifications, the Philippines can have leaders who are highly educated, honest, and experienced in government.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add three additional qualifications for the presidency, these are the qualifications I would add: 1. A Degree Holder: It's not enough for someone to just know how to read and write given the immense responsibilities of a President. A degree would ensure the candidate has the necessary knowledge and skills to lead the country. 2. No Criminal Record: How can people trust someone with a criminal record to lead the country? If they've committed a crime before, there's a concern they might repeat their actions as President. People need to ensure that the candidate has good intentions for the country. 3. Experience in Public Service: It's beneficial if a presidential candidate has prior experience in public service. This provides a track record for voters to evaluate. If people see that a candidate has effectively managed public duties before, they are more likely to trust and vote for them.
1. They must have a strong sense of credibility in many aspects of the economy, so it will be possible to execute their future plans. 2. They must utilize the globalization industries so they can sustain and continuously develop our communities. 3. They must have a unique attitude and mindset to innovate our country in a more competitive way.
If given the opportunity to amend the Constitution and add three new requirements for the presidency, I would propose the following changes: 1. The candidate must have a college degree and diploma in addition to having demonstrated good moral behavior. Candidates who have received a diplomatic education are more likely to have a comprehensive understanding of global security issues, international organizations, and trade agreements. 2. Proven History of Public Service Require that candidates hold a minimum amount (years) of experience serving the public, whether through elected office, government service, or significant contributions to non-profit organizations. Candidates should be able to identify specific projects they have led that have clearly enhanced the lives of Filipinos, whether on a local or broader scale. 3. Individuals with criminal records are prohibited from submitting a candidacy.
If I were to propose additional qualifications for the presidency in the Philippines, I would suggest the following: 1. Experience: Presidential candidates should have past experience serving the country (Government). Experience should be Mayor-level or higher positions only. 2. Educational Background: The presidential candidate should be a college graduate. 3. Advocates and platforms: The presidential candidate should have their advocates and their platforms on how they will lead the country
If given the opportunity to amend the constitution and produce 3 additional requirements for presidential candidates, I would propose the following: 1. Educational Credentials: It must be mandatory for those who will run as President to hold at least a bachelor's degree from a recognized institution. This stipulation ensures and shows a minimum level of academic attainment, essential for effective leadership. 2. Leadership Experience: Candidates must practice or has a minimum of 10 years of leadership experience in public, private, or non-profit sectors. This requirement assures people that they truly possess proven skills in decision-making, strategic planning, and organizational management. 3. Ethical Integrity: The candidates for President must have a documented and transparent history of ethical behavior, including financial transparency and adherence to legal and ethical standards. This is important for maintaining public trust and upholding the integrity of the presidential office.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, the three qualifications are: A clean track record- A candidate should have a strong background and clean records to reassure the people. Achievements and a good history show a person’s credibility, reliability, and reputation. A degree holder- being a degree holder can greatly enhance a candidate's credibility and ability to lead effectively. The knowledge gained from basic to advanced education can be valuable in governance. As every Filipino has the right to education, having a degree in our generation where education is more accessible and available to many, can help a leader govern more effectively and efficiently. A minimum year of experience in politics here in the Philippines, to serve the country- having some years of political experience is good for a leader in the Philippines because it helps them understand the real-life situations of Filipinos. It enables them to govern effectively for the benefit of the people and stay informed about critical social, economic, and other important issues faced by the country.
1. Educational Attainment - Must have at least attained a bachelor's degree. I believe in the saying that education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world; so it is just right that the one to be responsible for the future of the country has this power. This would ensure that the president has at least a basic understanding of governance, economics, law, and other critical areas essential for leading a nation. 2. Mandatory Presidential Debates - Candidates must participate in a presidential debate. This would show the candidate’s capabilities. It is a great way to measure and predict how our country would be if that person were to lead our nation. 3. No Criminal Record - Candidates should demonstrate a history of ethical behavior and integrity. This could help uphold the moral standards of the presidency. A thorough background check is a must and that includes a review of their financial records, personal conduct, and adherence to ethical practices in their professional and personal lives.
I propose that the following three qualifications should be logically incorporated into the Philippine Constitution for presidential candidates: Educational Attainment: Requiring a higher education degree to ensure informed decision-making and understanding of complex issues. Public Service Experience: Mandating prior experience in government roles to ensure familiarity with public administration and governance. Ethical Standards: Implementing strict ethical standards and background checks to promote integrity and public trust in leadership.
If I were to amend the constitution to add three additional qualifications for the presidency, I would consider: 1. Educational Qualification: At least a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution to ensure they possess the foundational education needed for informed decision-making on complex issues. 2. Leadership Experience in Public Service: A minimum number of years in leadership roles within public service, demonstrating their ability to effectively manage and navigate governmental affairs. 3. Proof of Clean Record: Evidence of a clean criminal record and ethical conduct, including transparency in financial matters, to uphold high standards of integrity and trustworthiness.
Given the chance to amend the constitution, I would add the three following qualifications for the Presidency and Vice-Presidency: 1) Must have no criminal records - A president with no past criminal records would have a more positive reception to the public, as it shows proof that they respect and abide by the laws of the Philippines. 2) Must be a college degree holder - As proof that they have the qualifications to become/ have become experts in their relevant fields. 3) Must be experts in their relevant respective fields with at least ten years of experience - Not only would they already have a vast knowledge of the Philippine laws, but they would also have at least a decade of experience, which will guide them in decision-making.
If I were given a chance to amend the constitution and add three qualifications for presidency, I would Consider: 1.

Years of active service in Philippine Politics- This is to ensure that the candidate has a background and has practical experience in public administration and governance. 3.Non-Partisanship Requirement- The candidate should have a record pf non-partisanship or be endorsed by multiple political parties.This is to promote unity and reduce political polarization by encouraging candidates who can appeal across party lines.

Candidates for the presidency must have prior experience serving in a high-level government position, such as governor, senator, or cabinet member. This experience would provide candidates with a deep understanding of how government functions and prepare them for the immense responsibilities of leading our nation. 2. Candidates should be required to pass a comprehensive exam on constitutional law and political theory. This exam would test their knowledge of fundamental principles of democracy and ensure that they have a strong understanding of the legal framework within which they will be operating. 3. Candidates must demonstrate strong ethical character and integrity. This could be assessed through an extensive background check and interviews with colleagues, friends, and family members. The presidency is a position of great power and influence, and it is crucial that those who hold this office are trustworthy and morally upright.
1.) To establish credibility and protect the public interest, candidates must exhibit honesty, morality, and ethical leadership by putting the needs of the people ahead of their own interests or those of their political party. 2.)

1. Knows how to represent everyone It's important for our leaders to understand and represent the diverse perspectives and experiences of our population. Maybe we could encourage candidates to demonstrate a commitment to diversity and inclusion, whether it's through their policies, their team, or their outreach efforts. That way, we can ensure that everyone's voices are heard and respected. 2. Prior Experience in Government When voters see a candidate with this kind of experience, they can feel more confident that the person knows what they're doing and is ready to take on the responsibilities of being president or vice president. When someone has this kind of experience, it helps them understand how government works from the inside. They get to see how decisions are made, how different parts of government interact, and what kinds of challenges leaders face. It's like getting hands-on training in how to lead effectively. 3. Vision and Leadership Qualities Candidates could be evaluated based on their vision for the country and their leadership qualities. This could involve assessing their ability to inspire others, build consensus, and make tough decisions in the face of challenges. Leaders with a clear vision and strong leadership skills are better equipped to steer the country towards progress and prosperity.

If I were given the chance to amend the constitution and add other 3 qualifications for the presidency, I would the add the following: 1.With a minimum of 2 years' experience as a public leader, effective leadership and interpersonal skills are crucial for elected and appointed officials to work collaboratively and efficiently with colleagues, stakeholders, and the public. Therefore, qualifications may include demonstrated skills in these areas, such as experience in managing teams or public speaking. 2.I believe that every elected president should be required to complete at least 2 years of mandatory military service, unless they have genuine moral or physical reasons not to. In such cases, they should be able to perform some other form of public service. It's important to note that being a politician should not be considered as "public service." 3.Applicants must have a minimum of 10 years of experience in one of the three branches of government (Judiciary, Executive, Legislative). This is necessary to assess their capabilities as government officials and to allow for a thorough review of any misconduct during their tenure in public office.
1. Must have a college degree related to politics or other relevant field - This will ensure that the candidate will have a foundation to understand the complex nature of economics, politics, and other important fields for successful leadership.

Must have service experience in the government or in public -Public service experience must be considered as they are more able to understand political affiliations, international connections, and political dynamics if they have demonstrated history of significant contributions to public service. 3.

Secondly, proven leadership experience, A president should have a track record of leadership and management experience, either in the public or private sector.

Why was gloria re elected if its not allowed?
Hello!
Good question. FPGMA has been re-elected (and was allowed to run in 2004 for the presidency) since Article 7 Section 4 states that:
"... No person who has succeeded as President and has served as such for more than four years shall be qualified for election to the same office at any time."
She succeeded Erap in 2001 and has served the unexpired term of the latter (which is less than 4 years since the term is set to expire in 2004). If Gloria had succeeded Erap around 1998-2000, she wouldn't have had the opportunity to run again in 2004.
I was not able to put that on the video so thank you very much for this question!
There are three things I would like to add in the Constitution before a Filipino could be qualified to run for the Presidency:
1. Must be a college graduate
It is honestly and bitterly surprising to learn that an educational requirement is not included for a President's qualification. Hence, I would add that a running-President must be a degree holder and should submit proof of being a college graduate.
2. Must submit SALN
To prevent and ensure that a running-President does not have an unexplained wealth, he/she must have submitted his/her Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth prior to election. A candidate would only be declared qualified to run if he/she submit his/her SALN. Otherwise, he/she would not be eligible for Presidency.
3. Must have an experience in other government branches
Competence and knowledge are one of the key qualities a President must have, wherein both are best observed through experience. A running-President must have at least worked under the two other branches of the government-legislative and judiciary, that will allow them to be an expert in meddling and deciding upon bills best for the masses before its enactment.
- Reamillo, Ruth (BABr 2-4D)
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, the following are the 3 additional qualifications:
1. Public service experience: presidential candidate must have previous experience in public service or important leadership roles. This shows their commitment to leading the nation and their capacity to handle challenging governance issues.
2. Educational attainment: presidential candidate must have a strong educational background, with at least a college degree.
3. Credibility: presidential candidate must have a track record of honesty, as it is considered more credible and trustworthy. They build trust that they will protect the public interest and fulfill their promises.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, I would add the following:
1. Completed a bachelor's degree.
I truly believe that whilst we can offer everyone a chance to lead the country, we must still value knowledge and competency. By graduating with a degree, we know that the future president will not only be able to read and write but also has skill to lead the country.
2. No Criminal Record
No thief, no murderer, and no human rights violator allowed! The future president should have a clean record to assure that the citizen's comfort, security, and future will never be compromised.
3. Public Service Experience
The candidate must have an experience in serving for the people and to the people. By having this, the candidate will be able to emphatize to the citizens but will be able to have great knowledge what the citizens specially the marginalize sector are experiencing.
If given the opportunity to amend the constitution and establish three additional qualifications for the presidency, I would propose the following:
1. The President must hold a college degree in a field relevant to governance, such as political science, law, economics, or a related discipline. This ensures a foundational understanding of key issues and principles essential for effective leadership.
2. Candidates must publicly disclose a comprehensive record of their financial status, including income, assets, and liabilities. This transparency fosters trust and accountability, allowing citizens to make informed decisions about the candidates' financial integrity and potential conflicts of interest.
3. Candidates must have a proven track record of effective leadership and accountability in their professional or public service careers. This requirement emphasizes the importance of practical experience and achievements in managing responsibilities.
1. They should have a sound of understanding of international relations and diplomacy, this shows how they're able to effectively represent our country on a global stage and in working on complex geopolitical issues.
2. Must have a proven track record of their experiences in the government before or should at least have a minimum numbers of proven experience in public service to see how effective they are as a leader in their respective fields.
3. Should have a strong commitment to upholding human rights principles, including equality and dignity for every individuals. And having the ability to effectively resolve conflicts that's important in maintaining unity and stability within their country.
If were given the chance to amend the Constitution and add 3 more qualifications for the presidency, I would suggest the following:
1. A presidential candidate should have a strong educational background. They should be required to have a minimum of a bachelor’s degree in political science, law, economics, or any related field.
2. A presidential candidate should have at least 10 years of experience in a government role like being a governor or senator. This is to ensure the public that they have a full understanding of governmental processes and leadership responsibilities.
3. A presidential candidate should have no conflicts of interest. They should also be financially transparent. They should have a full disclosure of their personal and family records, including tax returns, and a commitment to divest from any business interests that could pose a conflict of interest.
If given the chance to amend the constitution, I would suggest the following qualifications for presidency:
Educational background: Education is crucial for personal and national success. The President, as a major role model, should have a college degree.
Experience in public service: The presidency should not be a training ground. The President needs at least 10 years of experience in public service to understand how the government works and reduce the risk of incompetence.
No criminal record: To promote peace and uphold moral leadership, the President should have a clean record without any criminal history.
If given the chance to amend the constitution, the following are the three (3) other qualifications for the presidency I would add:
1. PhD Holder in Relevant Field
-Requiring the President of the Philippines to hold a Ph.D. could have several potential benefits that emphasize the importance of advanced education and expertise such as research and innovation skills, advanced knowledge, and critical thinking, and also it promotes meritocracy.
2. Free from any criminal record
-Requiring a clean criminal record for the presidency ensures that the country's leader upholds high ethical standards, commands public trust, and is committed to serving the nation with integrity.
3. Public Service Experience
-Requiring at least 6 years of experience in public service ensures familiarity or a solid understanding of government operations and public administration.
With these three additions to presidential qualifications, the Philippines can have leaders who are highly educated, honest, and experienced in government.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add three additional qualifications for the presidency, these are the qualifications I would add:
1. A Degree Holder: It's not enough for someone to just know how to read and write given the immense responsibilities of a President. A degree would ensure the candidate has the necessary knowledge and skills to lead the country.
2. No Criminal Record: How can people trust someone with a criminal record to lead the country? If they've committed a crime before, there's a concern they might repeat their actions as President. People need to ensure that the candidate has good intentions for the country.
3. Experience in Public Service: It's beneficial if a presidential candidate has prior experience in public service. This provides a track record for voters to evaluate. If people see that a candidate has effectively managed public duties before, they are more likely to trust and vote for them.
1. They must have a strong sense of credibility in many aspects of the economy, so it will be possible to execute their future plans.
2. They must utilize the globalization industries so they can sustain and continuously develop our communities.
3. They must have a unique attitude and mindset to innovate our country in a more competitive way.
If given the opportunity to amend the Constitution and add three new requirements for the presidency, I would propose the following changes:
1. The candidate must have a college degree and diploma in addition to having demonstrated good moral behavior. Candidates who have received a diplomatic education are more likely to have a comprehensive understanding of global security issues, international organizations, and trade agreements.
2. Proven History of Public Service
Require that candidates hold a minimum amount (years) of experience serving the public, whether through elected office, government service, or significant contributions to non-profit organizations. Candidates should be able to identify specific projects they have led that have clearly enhanced the lives of Filipinos, whether on a local or broader scale.
3. Individuals with criminal records are prohibited from submitting a candidacy.
If I were to propose additional qualifications for the presidency in the Philippines, I would suggest the following:
1. Experience: Presidential candidates should have past experience serving the country (Government). Experience should be Mayor-level or higher positions only.
2. Educational Background: The presidential candidate should be a college graduate.
3. Advocates and platforms: The presidential candidate should have their advocates and their platforms on how they will lead the country
If given the opportunity to amend the constitution and produce 3 additional requirements for presidential candidates, I would propose the following:
1. Educational Credentials: It must be mandatory for those who will run as President to hold at least a bachelor's degree from a recognized institution. This stipulation ensures and shows a minimum level of academic attainment, essential for effective leadership.
2. Leadership Experience: Candidates must practice or has a minimum of 10 years of leadership experience in public, private, or non-profit sectors. This requirement assures people that they truly possess proven skills in decision-making, strategic planning, and organizational management.
3. Ethical Integrity: The candidates for President must have a documented and transparent history of ethical behavior, including financial transparency and adherence to legal and ethical standards. This is important for maintaining public trust and upholding the integrity of the presidential office.
If given the chance to amend the constitution and add 3 other qualifications for the presidency, the three qualifications are:
A clean track record- A candidate should have a strong background and clean records to reassure the people. Achievements and a good history show a person’s credibility, reliability, and reputation.
A degree holder- being a degree holder can greatly enhance a candidate's credibility and ability to lead effectively. The knowledge gained from basic to advanced education can be valuable in governance. As every Filipino has the right to education, having a degree in our generation where education is more accessible and available to many, can help a leader govern more effectively and efficiently.
A minimum year of experience in politics here in the Philippines, to serve the country- having some years of political experience is good for a leader in the Philippines because it helps them understand the real-life situations of Filipinos. It enables them to govern effectively for the benefit of the people and stay informed about critical social, economic, and other important issues faced by the country.
1. Educational Attainment
- Must have at least attained a bachelor's degree. I believe in the saying that education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world; so it is just right that the one to be responsible for the future of the country has this power. This would ensure that the president has at least a basic understanding of governance, economics, law, and other critical areas essential for leading a nation.
2. Mandatory Presidential Debates
- Candidates must participate in a presidential debate. This would show the candidate’s capabilities. It is a great way to measure and predict how our country would be if that person were to lead our nation.
3. No Criminal Record
- Candidates should demonstrate a history of ethical behavior and integrity. This could help uphold the moral standards of the presidency. A thorough background check is a must and that includes a review of their financial records, personal conduct, and adherence to ethical practices in their professional and personal lives.
I propose that the following three qualifications should be logically incorporated into the Philippine Constitution for presidential candidates:
Educational Attainment: Requiring a higher education degree to ensure informed decision-making and understanding of complex issues.
Public Service Experience: Mandating prior experience in government roles to ensure familiarity with public administration and governance.
Ethical Standards: Implementing strict ethical standards and background checks to promote integrity and public trust in leadership.
If I were to amend the constitution to add three additional qualifications for the presidency, I would consider:
1. Educational Qualification: At least a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution to ensure they possess the foundational education needed for informed decision-making on complex issues.
2. Leadership Experience in Public Service: A minimum number of years in leadership roles within public service, demonstrating their ability to effectively manage and navigate governmental affairs.
3. Proof of Clean Record: Evidence of a clean criminal record and ethical conduct, including transparency in financial matters, to uphold high standards of integrity and trustworthiness.
Given the chance to amend the constitution, I would add the three following qualifications for the Presidency and Vice-Presidency:
1) Must have no criminal records
- A president with no past criminal records would have a more positive reception to the public, as it shows proof that they respect and abide by the laws of the Philippines.
2) Must be a college degree holder
- As proof that they have the qualifications to become/ have become experts in their relevant fields.
3) Must be experts in their relevant respective fields with at least ten years of experience
- Not only would they already have a vast knowledge of the Philippine laws, but they would also have at least a decade of experience, which will guide them in decision-making.
If I were given a chance to amend the constitution and add three qualifications for presidency, I would Consider:
1. College Graduate/ Degree Holder- This is to ensure that the individual who aims to be a President Candidate has a certain level of formal education. Also I believe this will serve as foundation for his/her leadership
2. Years of active service in Philippine Politics- This is to ensure that the candidate has a background and has practical experience in public administration and governance.

The presidency is a position of great power and influence, and it is crucial that those who hold this office are trustworthy and morally upright.

They get to see how decisions are made, how different parts of government interact, and what kinds of challenges leaders face. It's like getting hands-on training in how to lead effectively.
3. Vision and Leadership Qualities
Candidates could be evaluated based on their vision for the country and their leadership qualities.
