US imperialism maintains its interest in keeping the ruling political system and neocolonial state stabilized and, thus, securing the long-term economic, political and military interests of the US in the Philippines. US imperialism thus pushed hard on Arroyo and rivals among the ruling classes to make the just concluded reactionary elections appear more orderly and conclusive than previous ones in the hope of mitigating the contradictions among the rival factions of the reactionary ruling classes.
Patuloy ang interes ng US sa pagpapatatag ng naghaharing sistemang pampulitika at estadong neokolonyal upang sa gayo’y matiyak at mapanatiling madulas ang pangmatagalang pang-ekonomya, pampulitika at pangmilitar na interes nito sa Pilipinas. Puspusang itinulak ng US sina Arroyo at mga karibal nito sa naghaharing uri na pagmukhaing malinis at kapanipaniwala ang katatapos na reaksyunaryong eleksyon upang pahupain ang mga kontradiksyon sa hanay ng magkakaribal na paksyon sa reaksyunaryong naghaharing uri.
