Miss Haiti: Wyclef Jean Is An Unsuitable Candidate

August 17. 2010

Miss Haiti Sarodj Bertin

Beautiful, Miss Haiti, Sarodj Bertin, has publicly stated, singer Wyclef Jean, who is running for President of the island nation, is not suitable for the job. Bertin, who is a lawyer by trade, stated, “I really admire Wyclef, he’s a great singer and a really recognized Haitian artist – but I do not know if he’s going to arrive to his political objectives. After the earthquake, we need someone that really knows this position and has studied politics, and really knows Haitian society. We’re not in a place right now where we can just try people out. If Wyclef thinks he has the capacity then maybe he can arrive, I wish him good luck, but I we need to look at really moving the country forward politically.” 

She is correct in her assessment. Haiti is in the worst shape it has ever been, due to January's devastating earthquake. The situation in Haiti can be somewhat likened to the flood crisis in Pakistan, in that their next head of state, has to be the absolute best their country has to offer, to undertake the massive rebuilding and reorganization effort required to return their respective nations to some semblance of normality. 

It is not your average election, as it has come at the most crucial point in Haiti's history and Jean is not the best man for the job. He has many problems of his own, financial and otherwise, necessitating someone with a greater knowledge of Haiti's problems and the understanding of how to remedy them, be elected to office. The New York Times has also uncovered serious problems with Jean's Yele charity in Haiti (Star's Hopes to Lead Haiti Draw New Scrutiny). Haiti needs someone that can get the job done. One should not vote on sentiment, but sense. 

Side Bar: The people of Haiti should also take Bill Clinton up on his offer, of any rebuilding assistance he can provide, as he has knowledge of dealing with government crisis. Just keep him away from any nubile Haitian government interns and everything should be fine.
