Wyclef For President, In What Life?????

   As the situation in Haiti continues to look grim, the Haitian people seem to be finding solace in Wyclef Jeans’ recent decision to run for president of Haiti. The ‘Hip Hop sensation’ most known for his musical talent and artistry, continues to make headlines even with the suspicion centered around him and his charity Yele Haiti.  
   As it nears almost a year since the earthquakes in Haiti, Clef’s celebrity has brought hope to an otherwise mourning country. A country that is so poverty stricken, living literally means survival of the fittest. Haiti is still in despearate need of an intervention.
   They are wearing his shirts and believing in the promises he’s making. But, no one is absolutely sure that Clef has what it takes to lead a people. As far as the haitian people are concerned, Clef has money. He will pay them inexchange for their work, and he’ll return again to save them like the Messiah.
