From: archim <archim@globelsud.net>
Gary Pierre-Pierre makes at least one error in his posting
regarding the ability of Mr. Arsitide to govern Haiti. That error is a
point he makes regarding the US President Bush *not* sending anyone to
represent him at the recent inauguration of President Aristide. The US
Ambassador to Haiti was present at that inauguration. When an
ambassador is present at an official governmental function in another
country, he *IS* the representative of his country. Whether
Ambassador Curran was sent with a letter by President Bush, or not, he
still was there, and wherever he goes he is representing the USA and
its president; that's the job of an ambassador...and the very meaning
of the word.
So, it appears to me...and to the majority of others with whom I
have spoken, that the USA was represented, and the one doing the
representing was the US Ambassador to Haiti.
