The leadership of a political movement in a democracy hews along the dictates of hierarchy. The structure defines the leadership, even the leadership of the political opposition (such as the opposition we have now) that is at best marginal and overwhelmed by the forces of government in power. According to the natural order of things, the leadership of the current opposition to Mr. Duterte belongs to Vice President Leni Robredo, Mr. Aquino and Mr. Roxas, the triumvirate that are on top of the opposition’s hierarchy.
