Subject: leiderman: haiti's parallel universe?
Per below, is there another Haiti somewhere I don't know about? And does
an "aspiring fiction writer" really get paid to describe it, or is she
also five months' behind like those in the other world?

Madam Secretary: Haiti Gets New President, Blake Gets Fired
Tiffany
C. Lockhart 26nov'18
There comes a time in one’s life where they have to give up the job
they have worked for years to someone else. A passing of the
metaphorical torch if you will. In this week’s episode of Madam Secretary,
however, the soon-to-be-former president of Haiti has no plans to
retire. Blake also stresses about finding a new job as his final days as
Elizabeth’s assistant rapidly approaches.
The political coup that Dupont created was selfish and had no facts
or hard evidence to back up his accusations. He claims that the election
is not a fair one and uses his political influence to crack down on
Haiti’s Constitution. He also eliminates those who oppose him by killing
protestors who are trying to have their voices heard. His actions are
quite similar to that of dictators past but at least his tyranny is
within his own country rather than the entire world. When Dupont only
got a slap on the wrist for what he did irks me greatly, but it’s for
the greater good because it means Galbert will officially take over as
President of Haiti. I agree with Elizabeth when she told Galbert that
his sacrifice will not save his country, his survival will.
Meanwhile, Blake worries about his future at the State Department. He
enlists Jay’s help in preparing for potential interviews which did not
seem to go very well. His nerves get the better of him, causing him to
say rather silly things. I could definitely relate to what Blake is
feeling. I did my fair share of interviews over the years. It’s true
that having confidence will be a big help, but when it comes down to it,
one can’t help but feel the nervousness of it all. Though it looks like
he worried for nothing because he is now the Assistant Policy Advisor.
Congratulations, Blake! You deserve it!
Speaking of worrying, Elizabeth and Henry fret over the prospect of
being buried at Arlington. The former does not want to think about it
because she is afraid of losing the people she loves. Her fear is the
main reason why she never visits her parent’s graves, so she doesn’t
have to live with the reality that they’re gone forever. In the end, she
makes the trip to the cemetery with her family and places a single rose
on the top of each headstone. Sure makes me wish that Will would have
come as well but I guess the narrative did not deem it necessary to
include him.
I can’t believe that President Dalton did not tell Elizabeth that
he’s planning to launch an attack on Haiti. I understand that there
aren’t many options available, but there’s no need to resort to military
action that will result in a bloodbath. I’m sure that a solution will
present itself so we don’t have to endure World War III. Kudos to Blake
for saving the day with a solution that will get Dupont to step down and
avoid major bloodshed!
Did any of you know that the Haitian Revolution is connected to the
Louisiana Purchase? Cause I didn’t until I watched the episode.
