Heir to a political dynasty that introduced him to politics, Olongapo City Councilor John Carlos “JC” de los Reyes is defying tradition. He will be 40 years old in February and is dead-set in running for president in 2010 against political giants that will most likely include his uncle, Sen. Richard Gordon.

The son of Gordon’s sister Barbara, De los Reyes has neither money nor machinery. He is joining the political fray armed only with faith and conscience.

The standard-bearer of Ang Kapatiran, a political party espousing staunchly Catholic views, De los Reyes talks about his party’s “principle-based politics” in the following interview with Cheche Lazaro for Probe Profiles.

    Q: Nung nasa Nacionalista Party ka, hindi mo ba nakita yon?
    A: Wala. Nothing. I was a mere member. I never received a call, never received the principles and platform. Pag magpa-party sa Manila, isang beses lang akong pumunta. Dancing lang. Party, party, na walang saysay, walang lalim. And way back then, 1995, nakita ko na na this is not the kind of politics I want for my country.

    Maliwanag sa sinabi nitong si JC De los Reyes ay isang taong maninira at isang puga para sirain ang NP o Nacionalista Party. Isa siyang baliw kasama na rito ang mga taong gumagamit sa kanya.

    Mahirap ang landas na tinatahak ni JC delos Reyes. Maganda ang intentions pero medyo detached sa realidad ng electoral politics. Mahirap yung bigla na lang susulpot sa national scene tapos presidente ang tatakbuhan. From councilor, tumapak muna sya sa mataas taas na posisyon, magpakitang gilas at gumawa ng makabuluhang bagay na mapapansin bago tumakbo ng presidente.

    Relax ka lang pareng Destroyer, yung NP na sinasabi nya 1995 pa yun, si Doy Laurel pa may hawak sa NP. Kung 1995 nga, patapos pa lang first term ni villar as congressman.

    Maige yata na tumakbong gobernador ng Zambales si JC at palitan ang mga ‘ancient’ politicians dun. Doon ay marami siyang magagawa. Una ay ayusin ang pagkakalbo ng bundok dahil sa minahan at nang kung bumabagyo ay hindi lumalangoy ang daan-daang mga patay.

    mukhang kailangan magpalit na ng salamin ang taong to… tumaas na grado ng mata… hindi na makita katotohanan…

    Even some in here can’t see the truth. Kanya kanyang kabayo and depensa sa mga amo nila. If this guy is qualified, why not? Let them spend the money they’ve been hiding to prop up the economy.

    Ilang timbang laway kaya ang tumalsik habang iniinterbyu siya?

    Gordon din ‘yan, di ba?
