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" By definition, distraction means: "Something that serves as a diversion or entertainment, an interruption, an obstacle to concentration..." Question: Do you share her opinion that Wyclef's candidacy is a distraction? Reply with your comments.
