I'm coming as...

Corazon Aquino! First president of the Philippines (and Asia) who rose to power after her husband (who had intentions of becoming president) was shot on the tarmac as the family returned from exile. Despite being reluctant at first, she was voted into office. The intersection I see with technology and "Cory" is the way in which technology (such as print media, radio, telecommunications) was used to put her into power. I'm really interested in looking at how quickly the people of the Philippines managed to band together in order to instill this change. The mass media was critical here and I'm curious as to how this worked.
