The better answer is: no one knows.
I am proud of what I do - I stay in front of the computer no less than 12 hours a day scouring for information online. I devour every information I can get so that I can use it for personal amusement and sometimes for profit. I was able to help my family because of this self-imposed skill.
But when the name Vetellano Acosta popped up in the Comelec reconsideration list, I started to look for information and I felt belittled. Who is he? Where did he came from? Is he real?
Apparently he's real but little information is known to him. Even a trusted website for political information doesn't have a lot about him.
Here's the only information I can find online:
Job: Financial Cosultant
Party Affiliation: KBL
Residence: Cityland 10 Building, H.V. De la Costa Street, Makati
Voter on: Precinct 6 of Tejeron, Sta. Ana, Manila
The weird thing about this is that Jay Sonza is actually a lot more popular than this guy. If you're near 30 years old, you will recognize the name from the talk show "Mel and Jay" every Sunday evening in ABS-CBN. He is currently working for UNTV.
I can't even find a decent photo of the candidate. Google for image about this guy and you can't find anything.
My conclusion, it's a small blunder with a hint of conspiracy from Comelec. Mr. Acosta should come out often and explain to everyone who he is where he came from and he's not another Eddie Gil.
If you got sources, please help me. Comelec's site is down (again)

same here. all this time i thought that there are only 9 presidential candidates and i was surprised that Acosta was also allowed to run by COMELEC. Who is he? I think Mr. FU is even more famous than him.
Hehe :) Good point. I don't know if the Marcoses are familiar with this guy because I can't seem to find any data or interviews that confirms his affiliation.
