VP Jejomar Binay and Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte on Sunday, March 20, said they support a hero's burial for the late despot Ferdinand Marcos. 

Binay and Duterte uncovered their position in the "yes or no" bit of the presidential debate in Cebu City composed by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) and facilitated by TV5.

Taking into account the configuration of the verbal confrontation, TV5 news boss Luchi Cruz Valdes requested that the applicants raise their hands in the event that they support a hero's burial for Marcos in the Libingan ng mga Bayani (Heroes' Cemetery). 

Rules disallow hopefuls from clarifying their answer. 

Just Binay and Duterte raised their hands. 

Duterte said he needed to clarify his answer, however Valdes halted him from doing such. He elucidated that he will clarify his answer after the open deliberation. 

Binay supposedly once considered Ferdinand Marcos Jr to be his running mate. Meanwhile, large number of Duterte's supporters have pushed for a Duterte-Marcos tandem.
