“If the gentlewoman will answer one more question. It is my opinion that the hostile forces here in Washington, hostile people, the four or five key people with a lot of power, very hostile towards President Aristide's government, are using the election as an excuse, the technicalities of an election, which was not a bad election at all, in my opinion. The gentlewoman is closer to what happened in Florida, the heartbreaking Presidential election fiasco in Florida. Can the gentlewoman tell us whether she thinks what happened in Florida was far more outrageous and complicated and probably controversial than what happened in the Haitian elections; and that we are moving on and nobody dares to chastise us or penalize us for the election problems that we had in the Presidential election related to Florida.”
