I worked at the district before you have to prove residency. These people have to be buying identity theft because my identity was stolen and I found out it was a Mexican guy working at Walmart.

But we did it in 1804 and we will do it again. In fact, you are right Haiti is a failed state. Because we were not born as a Republic. We are an Empire. But only deeply ignorant people dare to compare kenya or any nation to my Hayti. Kenyan are in Hayti now because they get monney on our back as many nations had done before.
