Jynnee, when arguing about the French territories on the United States, one must say the "Louisiana Territory" and not the actual state of Louisiana including parts of Louisiana, Missouri, Indiana, Kentucky, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska and a part of Colorado.
That's the whole French territory in the United States, but among those French territories Hispaniola was the best ever Trading Post for France; and once they lost it nothing was important to them in the New World.
That is why Napoleon Bonaparte stated this:"Let Haitians perish within their own nest." What do we get in return?
The answer is this:The Ungratefulness From America.
We are a rich country in mineral wealth and America refuses us to develop our mineral wealth to feed our people.
The worst of it the Most Repugnant Elites of Haiti side with them under the paternalistic umbrella as labeled "The U.S. Protectorate." Toulimen are you back?
You need to shed some light here because it seems that Ablerooster is confused with Haiti's contribution into the wealth and the greatness of America.
Give us a buzz if you are back. I hope that you are doing well after the loss of your friend recently killed by those criminals in Haiti.
I wish you a safe trip back. Give us a buzz ok!

Baron, i understand that America has an atrocious track record in Haitian affairs, but it does not necessarily follow that we we will commit the same same atrocities all over again... The world has changed and I believe that America would be bound by

Baron, I believe a Public Treaty in which America disavows economic hegemony in the Haitian economy, would be a good framework. Haitian resources should be controlled by Haitians, not Americans. A panel of OAS observers would ensure that cold-blooded

A lottery should be put in place by which those who are literate in Kreyol are given an opportunity for business education and a role (including a financial stake) in rebuilding the Haitian economy. Contrary to what many believe, it is Small Business

Jynee, I agree with the basic thrust of your message, with one exception: The reason france sold the Louisiana Territory was because she was embroiled in a costly war with other European powers, and was engaged in a dispute with Spain over the land a

Ablerooster, Haiti must make a choice between the Protectorate or an Independent State Associated with the United States for any economic progress to occur in Haiti. In today's world, there is no independent country that can stand on its own with th

Petrus, just when I start to trust your intentions you blind-side me with insults. I don't get it.... Here we go again: A Haitian lecturing an American on American History. Let this sink in to your skull: I admire you for your pride, however self-de

Ablerooster, I don't know what you said that keeps this conversation going about the contribution of Haiti to the wealth of America, but I think that you need to close this chapter by making a statement on your own so others can move on another topi
