This is typical "crabs in the bucket" mentality that has plagued black people all over the world. We just cannot give another black person a fair shake. It is either our candidate or no one else. Michel Martelly won this election fair and square. To insinuate that the American government put him there is doing a grave disservice to all those hungry, tired, disillusioned haitians who took the time to cast their votes. I stopped taking your article seriously the minute you started to praising Aristide.

I have high hopes for President Martelly. He has been signaling to us in various of ways that his presidency will be different. Let's give him a chance and see what he can do. We have a part to play also. Se pa selman chita la avec deux plats mains nou ouvert ap tan deux goudin nan mains blanc-an….tout moun sipoze mete tet nou ensemble pou rebati vye peyi kraze nou-an…..

avec respe..

MARTELLY IS JUST ANOTHER USA PAWN. GOD HELP US, HAITIANS.

Stop the smear campaign!…..After almost a year, I have yet to see any investigative reports done on any of these claims against President Martelly….rumors don’t count as real work of journalism. I don't understand this argument on low participation at the polls when a country just suffered a major catastrophe…no one seems to take that into account the priorities have changed for the people who are living under pile of rubles, coping with death, destruction, grieving for their family and friends. All we can think about is to delegitimize everything step the country is trying to take in order to recover and move forward. I’m interested to know how Martelly’s administration is governing the country.

You are a fool, Aristide has done nothing positive for the poor or the country. He was involved in drug money laundering and killings of thousands of people in just 6 years of being in power. I do not trust Martelly and I would have rather see Mrs Manigat as the president but you are just too damn or maybe you are blinded by your allegiance to Aristide to even consider him as a legitimate leader.
