"As a candidate, Bill Clinton slashed into Bush's Haiti policy while stumping for votes. For most of us who work in Haiti, however, it has been difficult to discern the differences in the policies of Bush and his successor. Clinton continued to send the refugees back home. Trade with Haiti increased, in spite of stated support for the embargo. And Clinton named as his envoy to Haiti a an who was considered by many of us to be on the sideof the military and business elite. Representatives of other countries have come to doubt Clinton's sincere support for a return to democracy in Haiiti. In October, 1993, after a small group of thugs prevented the docking of the USS Harlan County and the deployment of a multinational team of military engineers, one French military advisor offered the following assessment: "Do you know what the real problem is? The Americans don't want Aristide back, and they want the rest of us out."" - Paul Farmer, Open Magazine Pamphlet Series
