A new President for Haiti...




Haitian presidential candidate Rene Preval, seen here, has won about 61 percent of the vote in Haiti's presidential election, according to partial results based on 15 percent of the votes, a member of the electoral council told AFP. (Photo: Jaime Razuri / AFP)

Mr. Preval's mentor was former President Jean-Betrand Aristide. He is considered a champion of the poor masses. Hopefully, our government will give him a little more support than they gave to Aristide.
