At this point, the congressional black accuus and these celebrities need to give it a rest. yes the election was marred with fraud but people who did not get to vote in last election can vote now. as for the Lavalas party, it has broken up, Preval was smart enough to incorporate many high profile Lavalas in his government and a few of the candidate run under a different party.

As a haitian woman, I care more about my counry moving forward than any leader or political party.

the Majority of haitians are ok with these two selections, so can we please move on. we have 1million homeless people, the people are resilient yes, but we are tired and we want to move on with reconstruction.

BECAUSE OF THIS RECENT HAPPENING, IT MIGHT BECOME DESIRABLE TO SUGGEST TO hAITIAN AUTHORITIES TO INSTALL SOME VEHICLE STOPPING DEVICES ALONG THE ROAD...

PROHIBITING STANDING, STOPPING OR SELLING
IN THESE AREAS.

A TRUCK MAY BE AN ASSET TO THE OWNER, IT MAY BECOME, AS FOR ANY MOVING VEHICLE AN INCIDENTAL LIFE THREATENING HAZARD.
