Bill Hillary Clinton and their experience with Haitian Voodoo

Bill Hillary Clinton and their experience with Haitian Voodoo

Here is a picture of the young couple Bill and Hillary Clinton.

The former U.S President Bill Clinton visited Haiti for the first time in 1975 on a trip sponsored by his friend David Edwards as a wedding gift. When he wrote his autobiography "My Life" in 2004, he mentioned his first encounter with voodoo as the "the most interesting day of the trip". He witnessed a voodoo practice in a village near Port-au-Prince. There the rites were performed by a priest named Max Beauvoir, a former chemical engineer who had studied at the Sorbonne in Paris. Clinton described his first experience with voodoo as a culture, that practices to make sense of life and nature; it virtually works with the universal belief that there is a nonphysical spiritual force at work in the world. Then Clinton was a law professor who had once lost his battle of political campaign, considering for a second run. The priest Beauvoir gave him a brief course in voodoo theology, he decided for a second run and that turned out to be a success. This time, he won -- and was on his way to the White House. Bill learnt one good lesson from Haiti and he wrote: "The Lord works in mysterious ways." Once a Voodoo sorcerer was supplied to him by his friend, the exiled-by-coup John-Bertrand Aristide, and that sorcerer put a curse on the incumbent President George W. Bush, "by manipulating a doll made in the President' s image."

Push to remove Laurent could erase gains Haiti has made, Bill Clinton

Push to remove Laurent could erase gains Haiti has made, Bill Clinton

The former US President Bill Clinton doesn't think that it is a good idea to remove Haitian Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe as it was suggested by the Commission.

Haiti's Big Mistake: Removing Lamothe

Ex-President Clinton said to force Prime Minister Lamothe to resign will be an enormous mistake, setting Haiti back, obliterating the gains it has achieved since the earthquake.

Clinton praised Lamothe for a job well done, adding Haiti ". . . is the most consistent and decisive government . . ." he has worked with on issues across-the-board. They have attracted a wealth of private investment and to throw it all away does not make sense to him.
