Haiti Elections - Reginald Boulos: If I was NOT Born in the USA, my Mother and I would be DEAD...
"Had I not been born in the United States," Boulos said, "Me and my mother would be dead and, being the first born child from a complicated pregnancy, my other 5 siblings would not have be born."
Boulos raises a BIG question of IDENTITY for all the Haitian mothers who are giving birth to children in Santiago, Dominican Republic, where 50 out of every 100 children born is of a Haitian mother, he said...
"They have no identity... This is a violation of Human rights," he said...
QUESTION: What happens when a Haitian mother has the financial ability to go to another country where there is a better health care system to give birth to a their Haitian child?
What do you think about that?

That would be no problem for a man of his stature, meaning money wise. He wouldn't pursue such venture because he has never looked at the poor Caribbean nation as his home country, but as a hub for quick cash.
It's unfortunate, if not sad, if he has a heart attack, by the time to embark an airplane to Florida, it would be way too late. I am a fiend of capitalism.
