Wyclef Jean For President Of Haiti. What Do You Think?
Monday July 26, 2010 05:38 PM ET
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 2005.
Did Wyclef Jean keep his Haitian Nationality or is he one of those Haitians +? Does anyone know what passport he travels with? Would Jean be disqualified to run in the next Haiti presidential election if it is found that his original Haitian nationality was changed?
Do you think Jean has a better chance to fight corruption in Haiti since he's known to be already a wealthy man?

The country has reached the level, which our leaders are unable to be trusted because most of them are corrupted. Wicleff has the willingness to do good for the country. Unfortunately, he alone won't be able to do anything. Eventhough I wouldn't like to see him involve in that nasty politic, but I rather get him instead of all those worthless in the ground. Thanks & Good luck

Wyclef's case is not so different from Jean Bertrand Aristide's, if there is a difference it could be that one is a priest and the other is a musician. I don't think that this guy has enough capacity to deal with a so complicated Haiti. He may have great ideas and desires to help the poor people, but to be president, it requieres much more conditions. If his name sounds to be president in Haiti now, it's because there's nobody capable inside the country to do a so delicated task. Good luck Mr. Jean

Il n'est pas demandé d'être un as de la politique pour être président. Je pense que Wyclef peut faire un bon président a condition qu'il soit encadré par une bonne équipe de techniciens, de stratèges et de visionnaires des amoureux de ce pays.
Je crois pour un nouveau départ de ce pays il faut de nouvelles têtes.
On a trop longtemps relayé en arrière plan les jeunes de ce pays qui sont ses véritables ressources. Que les anciens politicien laissent la place à la génération montante.

I wish Haiti could speak for herself and chose who to be her leader. Shame on us! From 1950's we are studied the same course, we are hard to learn the lessons and change course. After the earthquake, instead of thinking better we are getting from bad to worse. With him as President of Haiti, it would be like getting hundreds more earthquake.
