The Burden of a Second Mandate

  • Randolf S. David

Abstract

The overwhelming affirmative vote given to the 1986 Constitution in the February plebiscite may be seen as a testimony to Cory Aquino's unfading popularity. Viewed against the background of the recent military-led attempts to overthrow her government, the vote signifies an unequivocal rejection of Marcos-loyalist elements and other coup plotters within the military.
