The president of Haiti has decided that he wants to have a one-on-one with the presidential candidates but some of them are doubting whether or not this meeting is in good faith.
According to a recent article published by Radio Kiskeya, Candidate Jean Hector Anacacis doubts the sincerity or president Rene Preval to meet the candidates.
Haitian presidential candidate Jean Bertin says that Haiti's Conseil Electoral Provisoire (CEP) is getting his orders from the Haitian government.
In other words, Jean Bertin is implying that the CEP is not acting independently (autonomous)
According to an article in French published today on metropolehaiti.com, "... Le candidat à la présidence... considère que la décision du CEP, de l'exclure de la course électorale, est strictement politique."
Former 2 Live Crew rap star Luther Campbell aka Uncle Luke is no stranger to controversy. Uncle Luke is basically the Sweet Micky of the hip hop industry. Now he is speaking his mind on the Wyclef Jean / Sean Penn issue.
Here is Luke's Gospel on Sean Penn, Wyclef Jean, Haitian politics, and 'other celebrities'...
The Wall Street Journal reports today that actor Sean Penn is calling for candidate Wyclef Jean to drop out of the Haitian presidential race BUT... What gives Sean Penn the right to stick his nose in Haitian Politics.
Really...
Does a bag of rice give Sean Penn the right to decide for the entire Republic?
THe Haitian general election has been getting a lot of media attention mainly because of the candidacy of Hip Hop star Wyclef Jean. Now his candidacy is being called a distraction...
Ezili Danto (Marguerite Laurent), the founder of the Haitian Lawyers Leadership Network, wrote an op ed on the Denver Post calling Wyclef's candidacy "a distraction for Haiti"
Chow Mei-ching, The first lady of The Republic of China (Taiwan) is heading to the Republic of Haiti this Sunday, August 29 2010, on a Humanitarian mission.
The first lady is making this trip as honorary president of the Red Cross Society of the Republic of China and "Love Ambassador" for World Vision.
This trip will last five days and four nights; the first lady will also be visiting the neighboring Dominican Republic as well.
Sak ap pase konsa??? AFP reports: Wyclef Jean has been definitively barred from running in Haiti's presidential elections, the electoral council said Friday, but the hip-hop star dismissed the decision as "propaganda."... Wyclef di BOBINNNN.... LOL
Really... I'm not kidding...
Within the last hour, AFP's headline went from "Wyclef Jean definitively barred from Haiti vote" to "Wyclef attacks 'propaganda' that keeps him out of Haiti vote"...
Wyclef just released a brand news song titled "Gade Yo Bay Wyclek Kane" listen to it now. Wyclef is fighting back with the only weapon at his disposal... His lyrics...
In the song Wyclef blames the CEP and president preval for denying him the opportunity to run for President of Haiti

Charles Henry Baker est le seul Candidat crédible en Haiti, les autres sont tous des Téla déjà,qui n'avaient et qui n'auront aucune vision pour l'avenir de ce pays, ils n'ont qu'une chose en commun, vive leurs poches a bas peuple
et pays, on n'a pas besoin d'aller loin pour comprendre, il suffit de voir la manière dont ils se manifestent leurs sentiments, ils voulaient a tout prix bloquer les élections de novembre prochain, pourtant c'est eux même qui l'avaient demandé
pour éviter d'un gouvernement provisoire.
Ces soi-disant politiciens, avaient envoyé des courriers aux parlements de plusieurs pays, leurs demandant de ne pas subventionner les élections en Haiti, je trouve que, c'est vraiment minables de leurs part. N'importe quoi...
Mpa mandé piès moun pansé menm jan ak mwen, paské mkonnen
gen nèg se bétiz sal sèlman yo konnen
mdi sa, paské gen yon nèg kité jourém déja sou sit la, mpansé menm pou mémwa konpatriot nou yo ki péri,
nan katastrof, mantalité a ta chanjé,blié sa...
Je suis di¿½cu de voir sur ce forum ces commentaires de peu de valeur faits par des gens qui ne peuvent ri¿½fli¿½chir mi¿½me une seconde avant d'i¿½crire.
Si vos commentaires ne peuvent faire avancer la cause d'Haiti, SVP, n'i¿½crivez pas.
Je n'ai rien contre Wyclef Jean mais j'ai l'impression en lisant vos pensi¿½es que vous i¿½tes presque tous borni¿½s i¿½ croire qu'il pouvait vraiment devenir le chef de l'Etat haitien.
Ce site est polarisi¿½ et il faudrait que Mr St-Preux commence par le filtrer.
Il y a des bi¿½tises qui y ressortent, consi¿½quence de la frustration des gens. ces genres de comportements nous donnent aujourd'hui le pays que nous avons.
Soyons plus constructifs.
Quant i¿½ Wyclef, il a ri¿½pondu par la bouche de son canon: la musique.
Je l'ai toujours dit, Whyclef devrait continuer i¿½ faire ce qu'il fait le mieux dans sa vie et dans laquelle il ri¿½ussit tri¿½s bien: la musique.
Au lieu de vouloir i¿½ n'importe quel prix devenir Pri¿½sident (Chef d'Etat), il devrait ouvrir des i¿½coles de musique et enseigner i¿½ des jeunes talents haitiens comment faire de la musique et les rouages pour y ri¿½ussir financii¿½rement.
Nous aurions peut-i¿½tre quelques jeunes millionaires en Haiti qui pourraient i¿½ leur tour investir leur argent dans d'autres choses et cri¿½er de l'emploi pour d'autres jeunes, construire des bibliothi¿½ques, informatiser nos i¿½coles, etc...
C'est en quelque sorte une vision d'avenir que Wyclef devrait avoir en capitalisant sur ses connaissances pour aider la jeunesse haitienne dont il dit repri¿½senter.

My candidat has no chance to became president this time. Clef do not stop your vision continue to work with faith.
Because I remimber when I first come to us in 89 things where hard for us .
but you broke the barrier you stand haiti at a level that a lot of haitian star in hollywood never did. Haiti has hollywood writers, actors.
rappers but never heard from them. Now as haitian we not going to stand behind any poor candidat with no vision to change haiti.
all haitian need to stand for charle Baker that will help haiti recover and also receive money from donors as well as returning business> I beleive he will take those investers back from china to haiti.
My only question if he willing to decentrlize port-au prince.
We need an haiti the same ways it was back to tha 80's and befor where it used to be the top of the caribean .I have a strong feeling that Wyclef could bring those chang unfortunately he didn't have the chance but wiht charles baker haiti will move toward
Hi Woodring;
It's a very Good Job you do in the net.I congratulate you. we need those kinds of things to make us remember our pass and built our future.
Sometimes we foget too easily.
Like they said we have a " memoire poule", we don't have mind, we're without skills to study a situation what was bad and for taking another descision for the future.
I know and I try to believe that, a day, yes, a day, all haitians can say like Martin Luther King " we have a dream":
-A dream to take our destiny in our hand;
-A dream, not to leave others tell us what to do, but what we judge is good for us;
- A dream, not to go to vote for money;
- A dream, where each Haitian will Know he/her has a right to decide for him/herself;
A day, yes, a day.I don't know it's today or tomorrow but a day.
Thanks, but i did not write my comments for no reason, i wrote according to some writers on this site who r blamning the mulattoes, they talked bad about them. Ever since 2006 elections when some of them mulattoes decided to run for office , they have been critizise harshly that i beleive is unfair cz they re not the one who has the judicial power and that's what am trying to make some of the writers understand, one nation.
Most of the blks haitians needs to stop trashing out the mulattoes, we need to work together instead for a better nation and haiti would never be an indepedent nation if they were not involved.
and the first who stood up against the french and against slavery was a mulatto VINCENT OGE and others.
Mta renmen konnen tankou bann nèg sa yo ki té la sou fatra a, koumansé pa Youri Latortue é tout rès yo sak te sénatè kité dépité,prémié minis sou fatra a, mpat janm tandé koté
yonn nan nèg sa yo té fè yon konférans pou di non, se pa possib pou péyi a sal éta sa a,épi jodia mwen wè tout bann téla déja yo, bezwem prézidan men ou konnen gen tenten pou moun wè nan pyi sa a.
Mézanmi si tout politisyen, te menm jan ak sam wè la yo, lafin du monde tap rivé déja.
Jodia yo se sèl opozan yap gonflé kolèt yo paske yo konnen yo gen yon pèp analfabèt ke yo ka manipilé jan yo vlé
Tout moun bezwen prézidan, sitou depi Préval ak bèlriv fine pran desizion pou kréyé CIRH la, nèg yo vine konen lajan pou
réstoré péyi a pap tonbé nan men yo, tout moun anragé.
kouniè a yap jwé yon jwèt pou gaté éléksyon an,é sé menm yo menm nan ki aprè tranbleman tè a di fok éléksyon an fèt pou péyi a pa tonbé nan zafè gouvènman intèrimè,paské épok Latortue pa kité yon bon souvni.
Ayisyen Ayiti sak létranjé map mandé nou gadé tèt nèg yo bien pou nou wè si gen yon nan yo ki gen yon pwogram, pou fè yon bagay pou péyi nou, tout nè yo se yon bann téla déja
dim ki sa ki té janm réalizé,lè wap pran yon nonm kom Jak Edwa Alexi nèg Gonayiv Premié minis, jouska prézan basin vèsan ki inondé vil Gonayiv ki touyé ampil moun en 2004 é 2008 pa janm modifié pou pèmèt dlo exanté vil la, si nou vlé kwè mwen kwèm, pèsonèlman se yon sèl nèg mwen wè ki sil Prézidan ki ka fè yon bagay pou Ayiti sé( Charles Henry Baker )se yon Ayisyen ki ka defann Ayiti menm jan ak Prézidan Dominicain ki rèv li se pou la répiblik dominikèn
vin yon paradi térès.
