Accident Near Leogane Haiti, At Least 22 Dead

The "Haitian Joudalist" just learned that a major accident happened in Haiti, near the city of Leogane.

We learned that two transportation vehicles collided on Tueasday. The Haitian Police reported that at least 22 peoples were instantly killed. There were also many critically injured passengers who were transported to the nearest medical facility. The Haitian authority expects the death toll to rise among the injured Haitians.

Do you think it is time to address the ongoing transportation problem in Haiti?

Why do Buses have to carry so many people, without any regulation from the Haitian authority?

Do you think the Haitian authority is ultimately responsible for this problem?

Would you accept an increase in the public transportation rate in Haiti in order to provide more security in the transportation system?

Please comment

In wathing this music video, you will appreciate what we call the real masters in our Haitian music. After listening to this beautiful song by Beethoven, Richard Barbot and Joel Widmaier you will likely conclude just like me that these three are outstanding.

Wyclef Jean For President Of Haiti. What Do You Think?

It might become a reality. It is possible that the internationally known Musician Wyclef Jean can become the next president of Haiti.

The Haitian Joudalist received information from Ms. Sara Holbrooke, a CNN reporter,  that Mr. Wyclef Jean is thinking about running for President of Haiti. It is also reported that Wyclef already completed all the required paperwork to run in the next Haiti Presidential election scheduled to take place in November of 2010 and told CNN that he can't continue to sing forever.

What do you make of this?

Can he make a difference or do you think he will become just another Haitian politicians? Do you think if Wyclef Jean was president, he would get elected on Friday, assassinated on Saturday, and buried on Sunday like his own song says.

Is Wyclef Jean really going to run for President in the next Haiti presidential election? Jean may not have a lot of political experience; however, he has the ability to bring qualified people together to have the job done. His uncle, political activist, journalist and diplomat Raymond Alcide Joseph has been the Haitian ambassador to the United States since

Recent Photos Of Michel Bennett, Former Haitian First Lady

The "Haitian Joudalist" just received these latest pictures of our former First Lady, Michel Bennett. The pictures are Courtesy of Marie Toussaint and content, wikipedia.org.

What do you think about our former first Lady?

Do you think her marriage with Jean-Claude was good for Jean-Claude of Michel?

Do you think the marriage caused the ultimate exile of the Duvalier?

Do you think Michel was a modest person?

What do you think about her personality? Do you think she was obligated to be the way she was in order to protect her family?

Duvalier's marriage resulted in the exile of Baby Doc's mother, Simone Duvalier, and created new factional alliances within the ruling group.

The million-dollar wedding would be remembered as the young dictator's symbolic alliance with the mulatto elite — the very families Jean-Claude's father had decimated. Papa Doc's widow had been opposed to the match, and in this she was joined by almost all of the "dinosaurs", the Duvalierist Old

Show Some Consideration To Those Who Have Been Good To You!

A man, returning home a day early from a business trip, got into a taxi at
the airport. It was after midnight. While en route to his home, he asked
the cabby if he would be a witness. The man suspected his wife was having
an affair and he intended to catch her in the act. For $100, the cabby
agreed.

Quietly arriving at the house, the husband and cabby tiptoed into the
bedroom. The husband switched on the lights, yanked the blanket back and
there was his wife in bed with another man. The husband put a gun to
the naked man's
