In an interview with the Muslim network Al Jazeera, Wyclef Jean, who had high hopes of running for president of Haiti despite the fact that he’s not a resident of the island, said Haitians “don’t need a local president, I think we need a global president, someone that can travel.”
Wyclef is so clueless that his statement would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
This evening the election council in Haiti rejected Wyclef’s bid for presidency on the grounds that he has not lived in Haiti for over 5 years. Duh…
Wyclef broke the news on his Twitter page tonight.
Only a moron would think he could run for president of a country that he is not even a resident of.
Maybe Wyclef can run for president of the United States in 2012 (or sooner if Obama is impeached).
