Last month we learned that singer/songwriter Wyclef Jean will NOT be able to run for the office of president in the nation of Haiti due to his inability to satisfy the requirements needed by any person running for the office in Haiti. As a result of his exclusion from the race, Jean has decided to fight on in any way possible in order to be allowed to run for the office of Haitian president. Additionally, tho, over the weekend Wyclef Jean used his day job as a musical performer to try and show the world that he is worthy of the office of the Haitian presidency by signing about it. Unfortunately, Jean‘s attempt to sing his case has only proved without a shadow of a doubt that he is NOT worthy of the office of any presidency … read on to find out why:

Wyclef Jean has publicly called out actor Sean Penn and ex-Fugees bandmate Pras after they both spoke out against him during his run for the Haitian presidency this summer. The rapper seems to be fuming with Sean, but still has love for his old friend, Pras. He told Hot 97: “If I was president, I got a message for Sean Penn; maybe he hasn’t seen me in Haiti because he was too busy sniffing cocaine. I got a message for Pras as well, even though you don’t want to support me, I got love for you, even though you only kicked 8 bars for The Fugees.” Penn told CNN last month: “This is somebody who’s going to receive an enormous amount of support from the United States, and I have to say I’m very suspicious of it, simply because he, as an ambassador at large, has been virtually silent. For those of us in Haiti, he has been a non-presence.” Pras has come out in support of Michel Martelly, who announced his bid for the Presidency on Thursday. “I have no qualifications for president; I have qualifications for a leader,” Pras told CBS “The reason why I even entertain this idea is education, job creation, agriculture, bringing security into the country.” “He’s (Martelly) more popular in Haiti than Wyclef.”

I mean … yeah … if we needed any more proof that Wyclef Jean is not qualified to be president of anything, it would be THIS outrageous performance on stage at the Hot 97 On Da Reggae Tip concert. To publicly accuse Sean Penn of “sniffing cocaine” merely because he criticized Jean‘s qualifications as a presidential candidate just proves that Penn is absolutely right. Wyclef Jean isn’t qualified to be president of the PTA, let alone an entire nation. After the jump, check out video of Wyclef‘s performance of his song If I Was President to hear the man hammer a nail into the coffin of his failed presidency bid …

I’ve always contended that Wyclef Jean‘s heart was in the right place, that his love for his country was strong … now I’m not so sure. I cannot understand how a man who claims to know what is right in order to lead a nation he claims to love thinks it is OK to make such childish and outlandish accusations about his detractors. The man is a clown, plain and simple. Let him sing his silly songs to his heart’s content, leave the serious work of political leadership to other more qualified and mature people.
