Wyclef Responds To Death Threats Over Presidency!


People are NUTS!!!! Ever since announcing his bid for President of Haiti, Wyclef Jean has been faced with a firestorm of criticism from EVERYWHERE, including death threats. COME ON!

And now, Wyclef is speaking out about it:
"In the past couple of days we have received a few death threats. Just for our safety we came to an area we feel is secured - that is my town. We're in an area where we're comfortable, the area where we were at before, we weren't comfortable. We know this situation we've embarked on, death threats come with the territory. But beyond that it's not about all those negative information (sic)." Regarding claims that he is not eligible for the role of president, he responded: "The issue of residency, we have proof, five years. Every piece of paper that the commission, the electoral council have asked for, we have delivered. So by law, we have everything. If after Friday we're not approved I will continue doing what I've been doing in Haiti. We'll be respected as a political force. The important thing is I hope we can be part of the big plan."

Again, I wish him nothing but the best! Even with the death threats, he continues to fight on.
