There's a couple of words that caught my attention in your post: respect and honor are just a few of them. With all due respect I don't think you fully understand the meaning of respect and honor.
You said, I'm paraphrasing, that the dual citizenship issue is like a man who leaves his wife for another woman and then come back to her to claim sexual privileges.
You then went on to say that the ex-husband says to his ex-wife that if she does not have sexual relations with him he will not give her any money he will let her starve to death.
Okay I'm not a conservative but don't we as Haitians believe that if a woman is accepting money from a man then that man can request sexual favors at anytime.
And then you said, "what do you think of a man like that?" I think he works hard for his money, there should be some strings attached.
The topic is: Correction for my last post.

See! We are not on the same page. Haitians are poor. But, in their poverty, they value their dignity. Your view is like money can buy anything. Correct me if I am wrong, it is like you telling me that the Haitian Diaspora can buy “dual citizens

I do not know and never receive any evidence that President Rene Preval is a naturalized foreign citizen. But, if he is, we voted him in good faith. If it is and your opinion about him was correct, then you just prove to yourself that Haitians

Linda, I am exploring and hope for a reconciled solution to the problem of our beloved brothers and sisters who had freely renounced all allegiance and fidelity to Haiti. We will find the solution through mutual respect, honesty and compassion.

I respectfully disagree with you. I read most of your blogs on this topic. You seem very passionate about your views. In my opinion your views are misguided. You have not given a clear reason why dual citizenship should be denied to Haitian Americans

Thomas, when I debate a point, I try to stick to the facts. I tend to list these facts so that they are clear. Because I stick to the facts, I am able to express myself by making short statements that go right to the point. I notice that you can't do
