a1204: Is He Haitian or Haitian-American (fwd)





From: Senou <senou@yahoo.com>

Folks, this is a very sensitive issue, before making
any allegation, we should wait for the conclusion of
the investigation.  Now, we should ask Mr. Neptune to
come forward and remove this doubt. The Constitution
is crystal clear, some had said why they did not catch
him prior running for the first time, may be people
were not interested.

ARTICLE 157:
To be appointed Prime Minister, a person must:
1) Be a native-born Haitian, and never have renounced
Haitian nationality;
2) Have attained thirty (30) years of age;
3) Enjoy civil and political rights and never have
been sentenced to death, personal restraint or penal
servitude or the loss of civil rights;
4) Own real property in Haïti and practice a
profession there;
5) Have resided in the country for five (5)
consecutive years;
6) Have been relieved of his responsibilities if he
has been handling public funds
