Nice work Howard the Duck! --Noypi380 13:34, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks! The lead section needs a improvement, though. I'd want this to be a featured list someday.--Howard the Duck | talk, 14:07, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- Not just someday, but very soon. As early as now, I think it can be nominated already for a good list. :) --Noypi380 14:24, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Presidential "family tree"
I found this article which explains how 12 of the 14 presidents of the Philippines are actually related--either by marriage or by blood. The "family tree" also includes prominent politicians, aristocratic clans, business magnates, television personalities, beauty queens, and Spanish-era war heroes. The article is in text form, hence, it will be interesting to see an illustration of it as a "family tree." Although personally, I will not encourage its posting in this article, it is worth making a new article out of it. As a person from the Philippines, the family tree is a tangible illustration of a prevailing theme/thesis in Philippine history/sociology. That the Philippine society is ruled by a small group--which has not really changed since the Spanish-era. The family that ruled before is still the family that ruled today.
