Ang "Party-list" ay isang grupo na kumakatawan sa tinatawag nating "Marginalized Sector" o mga maliliit na sector ng lipunan upang mabigyan sila ng boses sa ating Pamahalaan. Ngunit isa nanamang napakalaking panloloko at pambababoy ng Pamilyang Velasco sa ating Saligang Batas ng maghain sila ng kanilang "manifestation of intent" para tumakbong party-list sa darating na eleksyon. Basahin dito.
Ang AMA o Ang Mata'y Alagaan ay kumakatawan DAW sa mga bulag at sa mga taong may iba't ibang sakit sa mata. Ngunit kung ating susuriin ay ni wala man lang sa kanilang doktor o kahit naging espesyalista sa mata at wala rin silang ni isang "track record" sa pagsusulong para sa interes ng kanilang sinasabing sektor na kakatawanin.
Narito po ang mga nominado ng Pamilyang Manloloko:
First Nominee: LORNA Q. VELASCO (wife of Justice Velasco and mother of Cong. Velasco of Marinduque)
Second Nominee: TRICIA NICOLE Q. VELASCO - CATERA (daughter of Justice Velasco and sibling of Cong. Velasco of Marinduque)
Third Nominee: VINCENT MICHAEL Q. VELASCO (son of Justice Velasco and sibling of Cong. Velasco of Marinduque)
Fourth Nominee: ALFREDO GUIAO JR. (in-law of Justice Velasco)
Comelec chair: Party-list system a joke
‘Many reps multimillionaires; 289 groups seek nod’

The list of groups seeking congressional seats gets stranger and more absurd every election season, making the party-list system a joke, according to Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Sixto Brillantes Jr.
A quick look at the Comelec’s list of the groups shows that health promoters, aviation advocates, athletes and hobbyists, entrepreneurs, former drug users, ex-military renegades, school dropouts and even foreign-exchange dealers want to run for seats in the House of Representatives that the Constitution reserves for marginalized and underrepresented sectors.
In a review of party-list groups, the election watchdog Kontra Daya cited, among many other groups, Ang Mata’y Alagaan (AMA), a group that claims to represent blind indigents and people afflicted with all kinds of eye diseases and disorders but whose nominees belong to the well-connected Velasco family.
AMA chose Lorna Velasco, a nurse and the wife of Supreme Court Associate Justice Presbitero Velasco, as its first nominee. Velasco’s daughter, Tricia Nicole, a lawyer, was chosen as AMA’s second nominee.

“The Velascos are very powerful politically and economically, considering that they have as head of the family a sitting member of the highest court of this country,” Kontra Daya said.
“Clearly, the AMA has no bona fide intention to represent the sector it claims to represent, but rather to represent the interest of the already powerful, well-connected Velascos,” Kontra Daya added.
heto po ang pinagkunan.
