“Senator JV Ejercito says he’s already ruling out becoming the running mate of Vice President Jejomar Binay in 2016,” reports ABS-CBN News correspondent Willard Cheng on ABS-CBNnews.com.
“With regard to baka ako ang pipiliin ni Vice President Binay, baka hindi. Pareho kaming kulay, baka hindi kami makita pareho (With regard to Vice President Binay choosing me as his running mate, I think not. We have the same skin tone, maybe we both won’t be seen),” Ejercito joked.
Ejercito then said that it is “most likely” that Binay’s running mate may also come from another political party that would coalesce with the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA).
