After publishing the article, Emann writes on his facebook page:

LMFAO!!! Men lobey pete nan gwoup politik yo la wi pou atik mwen an... 2 kan yo [Lavalas ak Tet Kale] ap voye toya sou youn lot. lol SMH

I am not sure if the focus here is on "Le sujet du verbe" or the "complement d'objet direct" but I am curious to know this...

It is important not to judge the book by it`s cover.

While the Duvalier were dictators and a lot of things happened during their reins, Nicholas is living in a different period of time. This is a different Haiti, a democratic country where the people will always have the final word when it comes to abuse from governments.

We are not to make him pay for what his parents did, Haiti is in need of advancement and anyone that can drive the country to fertility should be welcome.

I agree with you 500% there.

Mr. N. Duvalier has the right to exercise his rights as a Haitian Citizen including running for office provided he has met all the procedural requirements.

But the Duvalier name is a Haitian Icon whether we like it or not. Some of us will find a repetition from the past, a horrible past at that not so comforting.
