How To Talk With A Stuffy Nose

Mezanmi o! Of the writer Victor

Haiti: The elections of March 20 will give us a new president. In a context of widespread failure, mediocrity and institutionalized corruption by twenty years in power Lavalas who continued undermining of Haitian society already begun by Duvalier father and son. We are in a society that has lost its bearings and where thieves of all stripes can be seen - by a younger generation to whom nothing has been exemplary - as people frequently, and even necessary to give a boost a real change.

We will have a new president, but also with all the wildlife shady past twenty years of lies, robbery, denial of institutions and people of Haiti. The Haitian people, which was predictable, even major policy experts do not see it coming, vomited the whole experience of recent years. But he kept his faith in a new unalterable luck. He wants nothing one way or another that reminds him of those politicians who simply intrigues of lobbies, did not hesitate when it came to wag its tail, opening its jaws to grasp a bone set by the prince. Except that there never really had anything for this hope, this desire is transformed into reality by a large national project for an effective reconstruction. Whenever, in these moments, his Voting is an expression of rejection, with the hope that something changes confusing indeed.

In such a context of failure would require the company secretes a vanguard that could provide leads for new thoughts, new practices, other policies, especially the imagination starts serving politics. But with this compact wildlife in its interests and its reflexes in predators, which has always shown a total lack of intelligence and willpower when it comes to thinking about the common good, this fauna which often drown contenders Chair, there is reason to be skeptical in the future.

One or other of these candidates would have the capacity to disengage from the grip of this fauna to, independently and with support from the healthy parts of the nation and the real foreign friends of Haiti, rethink governance and as an instrument for the common good?

What happens if the new president takes the eternal game of power for power, contempt for institutions, continuing subservience of the police, the judiciary maintains its decay over a century to govern in peace The law exists only for and by self-interest group in power?

New President Will he continue to use thugs to have absolute control of its policy? Will he scheming back to the institutions offering the POC for suspicious individuals that power can control the upcoming elections?

Will he put his own men at the head of public companies not to make them efficient and give better service to the public but only to pick up some fabulous dividends?

Will it make a national team is not humiliated abroad by requiring finally here, on national soil, it accepts to bow to the standards and procedures we follow in all others country?

short, will we stop these stirring ideas mentally ill as what we would be unique - vive la difference - and that others should accept ourselves as we are with our dirt and our contempt for humans?

My mother, a philosopher in his time, listened stoically after reporting on a radio station, had to remember the proverb that gave me cold on the back: "Or shall mete sou yon bourik ves, kravat nan ku l depi noon, AD anni kanmèm "

Mezanmi o!
