A fine blog I follow from across the pond, arealgoodblog.blogspot.com, by a talented and witty writer Charles Emerson III, mentioned today the absurdity of 'old rapper' Wyclef Jean's intention of running for the presidency of Haiti.
Well, I just had to confirm the story, and now, can't resist having a dig myself! I'm not stealing your thunder, Charles (couldn't if I tried anyway) but I must vent my anger.

So the pompous "bling-laden" airhead thinks he is qualified for the job !! Is it because he is a B class celebrity?.. or of Haitian origins?.. or a shit accountant (see below)? Is that all it takes??? The mind boggles.
Haiti needs a statesman of stature, comparable to the likes of Nelson Mandela or Mahatma Gandhi, to free Haiti from it's present predicament, not some dubious rapper from Newark, New Jersey with a dodgy tax record.
OK, I'll be fair and mention his attributes;
He set up the Yele Haiti Foundation in 2005 to help poor children in Haiti with scholarships, but...this is where it gets good...all the money raised ended up with good ol' Wyclef and his partner Jerry Duplessis!! This is still being investigated by the US Authorities!!! And how about Yele Haiti's predecessor, the Wyclef Foundation? Well that's even worse...
The Wyclef Jean Foundation has been involuntarily dissolved several times by the Florida Division of Corporations for failing to provide all necessary tax details to the authorities!!!
FANTASTIC !! And he wants to become president of the world's poorest nation??? With his accounting skills??? God forbid.
WYCLEF, YOUR COUNTRY DOESN'T NEED YOU, so get back to your gangster-rap lifestyle, arrogant *%&£! Who DO you think you are? Ronald Reagan? eh? Arnold Schwarzenegger?
(I feel better now)... but not much.
...AND FROM ONE ARROGANT AIRHEAD TO ANOTHER;
Naomi Campbell has made a court appearance at the trial of Charles Taylor, ex Liberian warlord and diamond peddler. Naomi accepted a "gift" from Taylor in the form of a pouch filled with uncut diamonds, delivered to her hotel room in the middle of the night.
Ms Campbell didn't think it odd, after all she gets presents all the time from all kinds of people.!! The "caption of the trial" must be her admission to not knowing of a country called Liberia or the term "Dirty Diamonds".
I guess mother nature was kind to Naomi when dishing out looks...and that is all!
