That 'Romualdez/Aquino' viral video is, of course, politically motivated and obviously edited to serve a particular interest group. It's an in-your-face shot right on the turf of Malacanañg's spin doctor, Ricky Carandang.
Mar Roxas's framing of "you're a Romualdez and the President is an Aquino" is not at all advisable, but the intention is not always perceived as it is. Though Mar meant the avoidance of accusations of 'politicking' against the Aquino administration if the central government takes over an LGU without due process, such kind of language framing reflects not only the mentality of the country's political elites but also the persistence of intra- and inter-elite conflicts and the permanent social crisis in the Philippines.

Again, the solutions to our country's convoluted socio-economic ills do not rest on 'pro-/anti-Marcos and pro-/anti-Aquino' conflict and struggle.
Sing:
"Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo"
