IOTL, Ferdie, like Arroyo until recently, sought a Constitutional convention in 1971 to create a parliamentary system to abolish term limits. After the chairs told him no, he tried to bribe them into forcing it through, and they refused. 14 months later came E.O. 1081 and Marcos, a civilian president, leading a military dictatorship for 14 years. WI the delegates had bowed to the pressure and created a parliamentary system? Marcos is elected PM without term limits, and the need for martial law is removed? Will he govern better than OTL?
