SIMI VALLEY, California (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Last July, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew announced plans for a redesign of the $10 bill, marking the first time in more than a century that a woman will be featured on a U.S. bill. The newly designed $10 bill will be issued by 2020—in time for the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment (women suffrage).

At last night’s Republican presidential debate, moderators asked the candidates which woman they would put on the $10 bill. Here’s how each of them responded:

Rand Paul: Susan B. Anthony, suffragist

Mike Huckabee: His wife, Janet

Marco Rubio: Civil rights activist Rosa Parks

Ted Cruz: Put Rosa Parks on the $20 bill and keep Alexander Hamilton on the $10

Ben Carson: His mother, Sonyaimagem

Jeb Bush: Margaret Thatcher, British prime minister mj

Donald Trump: His daughter, but he’d like her to be on the $100 bill.

Carly Fiorina: “We shouldn’t change the $10 dollar bill or the $20 dollar bill. I think, honestly, it’s a gesture. I don’t think it helps to change our history. What I would think is that we ought to recognize that women are not a special interest group. Women are the majority of this nation, we are half the potential of this nation and this nation will be better off when every woman has the opportunity to live the life she chooses.”

Scott Walker: American Red Cross founder Clara Barton

Chris Christy: First Lady Abigail Adams

John Kasich: Nobel Peace Prize-winner Mother Teresa

AQUINO, ROXAS TO MEET WITH DONALD TRUMP TO DISCUSS SENATOR POE CITIZENSHIP ISSUE

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) –  Philippine President NoyNoy Aquino and his anointed successor Mar Roxas will fly to Las Vegas this weekend for an unofficial visit to the United States. While there, the duo will meet with Republican presidential canidate Donald Trump at the latter’s Trump Towers.

The purpose of the meeting: to seek Trump’s advice on how best to deal with the citizenship issue faced by Senator Grace Poe who has just declared her candidacy in the 2016 Philippine presidential elections.

Poe’s political opponents have questioned whether or not she was born in the Philippines, a qualification to become president. She was adopted by Actors Fernando Poe, Jr. and Susan Roces when she was a baby. The senator’s biological parents are unknown.

Aquino and Roxas are running scared because Poe is extremely popular and continues to maintain the lead in national polls among presidential candidates.

Many will recall that Trump is a self-identified birther, having stubbornly pursued the question of whether or not President  Barack Obama was born in the United States. Obama released his long-form Hawaii birth certificate in April 2011 after speculation from Trump and others that he might have been born elsewhere.

“We’d like Trump’s advice on how we can use the citizenship issue against Poe in the presidential campaign. That’s the only way we can defeat the senator,” Roxas told reporters.

Aquino will also extend a formal invitation to Trump to visit the Philippines before his term as president expires in 2016. “I will be very honored to be among the very first world leaders to welcome the future president of the United States,” Aquino said.

DONALD TRUMP TO HOST FIRST DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE IN LAS VEGAS

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – While the current media focus is on the second Republican presidential debate happening this week on CNN, the election-weary U.S. population is eagerly anticipating the first Democratic presidential debate scheduled for October 13 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Earlier, the Democratic National Committee announced that there will only be six debates among the small field of presidential candidates (as opposed to the 36 declared Republican presidential aspirants).

The first Democratic debate will air on CNN and will also be broadcast by Salem Radio. It will be held at the grand ballroom of the Trump Towers in Las Vegas.

The Republican presidential candidate frontrunner has graciously offered the Trump Towers as the site the Democratic debate.

It is no secret that Trump has a history of cordial relationship with the Clintons, so offering his Las Vegas landmark property comes as no surprise to many.

In fact, one of the six Democratic debates is scheduled in Miami, Florida, and Trump has offered his golf resort in Doral, just a few miles from Miami, as the venue for that particular debate. It was the site for this year’s Miss Universe beauty pageant.

There is a good side to Trump, after all.
