I may have committed an indiscretion when I wrote recently that if we need to hold a 2016 presidential election despite the extremely deranged political situation, and somebody named Poe must run for president in that election, we should blithely ignore the ambitious but constitutionally disqualified Sen. Grace Poe Llamanzares, and consider instead the more stately actress Susan Roces Poe, widow of the late Fernando Poe Jr., who was widely perceived to have been duped in the 2004 presidential election, and surrogate mother to the highly problematical Grace.

I hope Susan Roces Poe will accept my sincerest apologies.
