MANILA - Aside from Liberal Party standard-bearer Mar Roxas, there were other candidates vying for the presidency who filed their certificates of candidacy at the Commission on Elections office Thursday morning.

One candidate, Jose Larry Maquinana, 41, wore a swastika patch on his shirt and said he was the "Hitler of this generation."

The swastika was used as a symbol of the Nazi Party of Adolf Hitler.

Asked why he had a swastika on his shirt, Maquinana said: "Katuparan ng kasulatan ng Bible."

He also told reporters: "Ipagtatanggol ko ang Pilipinas laban sa ibang bansa."
