With any POD after the granting of Philippine independence and before his OTL death in 1960, is it possible to have Claro M Recto as the President of the Philippines?
Claro M. Recto would be a Garcia-on steroids. He is too nationalistic in his times. His economic policies will just lagged the Philippines from the rest of neighbors further. Fortunately, Recto was not charismatic as we thought.
