JCD doesn't have much in the way of qualifications for the strongman some of you are wishing for. Consider his track record - a pampered playboy who was a mere figurehead for most of his 15-year stint in power, while older relatives administered the repressive and tightly-controlled structure left by his father Papa Doc. In 1986 he fled the country with his tail between his legs and millions of dollars and he has lived in idle exile ever since. I get the impression he has some notion of getting his mitts on the aid millions so he can return to the lifestyle to which he was accustomed, or has been pushed by supporters appealing to his vanity. The mess that is Haiti in 2011 hardly provides a basis for him to re-establish any sort of effective rule, repressive or otherwise.
What this may do is open the doors to the return of Aristide - now that would be an explosive spanner in the works.
