It is so artificial for politicians such as Clinton to use disasters such as the earthquake in Haiti to garner votes for any candidate in the USA------to take advantage of others legitimate sorrow at this kind of devastation that only happens via natural disasters------and cannot be controlled my mere man.

Clinton was President in the mid 1990's while many compassionate Americans were helping Haiti, helping Haiti to modernize to learn skills that would bring them into the world of technology. That educational effort was not being led by Clinton.

Is it not fair to ask the question-------if Haiti's buildings had been built any differently, would more people have survived? Is it possible for buildings and homes to be structurally built to withstand the devastation of an earthquake?

Would the "whole thing" have been different as Clinton says if this and if that? Clinton is acting and speaking a whole lot like Al Gore and the faux global warming--------speaking in the vein that we, mere human beings, can control what God through design created on earth.

I would say to Mr. Clinton what is the "whole thing"?
