Rapper Wycleff Jean President of Haiti?

In one of the worst ideas that could possibly be conceived for earthquake torn Haiti, rumour has it that Haitian born rapper Wycleff Jean plans to run for President of the country. This is a terrible idea, and while he may do admirable charity work for his native country, he is absolutely not qualified for this position. Infact given the fragile state of the country, not only would this stall the recovery, it might actually set them back. Come to think of it, former Governor General of Canada Michaelle Jean would be an excellent choice if she were interested and at least she has head of state experience (defacto or otherwise).

If you want to know what would happen if Wycleff were elected President, watch the video:

  1. Wyclef couldn't possibly be any worse than any President Haiti has had in recent memory. He couldn't help but be better.

    Besides, other countries have far worse. Ever heard of a guy by the name of Barack Obama?

  2. The country does not have infrastructure, employed middle class with a skill set as we understand and the aid is not getting out.

    Decades of mismanagement, corruption have created a perfect example how foreign aid is unable to be delivered.

    The PM has called for the aid groups, donor countries to be held accountable.

  3. I thought Wycleff Jean had some money trouble with his charity. There are questions about funds being used for his personal expenses instead of helping the people of his homeland. Cheers.
