520    $a "In 1991, during George H. W. Bush's Presidency, the U.S. Coast Guard stopped a leaky Haitian fishing boat carrying 161 Haitians and 2 Cubans who the Haitians had picked up in a gesture of brotherhood. Two years later, when Bill Clinton was President, a boat carrying seven Cubans and ten Haitians landed in Florida. All those aboard the boats wanted to come to the land of opportunity. They arrived, however, without U.S.-granted immigration visas. The Immigration and Naturalization Service, nonetheless, admitted the Cubans. In contrast, the Haitians were whisked off to detention facilities. Almost all were repatriated. The Clinton Administration refused to admit the Haitians even though Clinton had promised during his campaign that, if elected, he would end the George H.W. Bush Administration's cruel practice of sending unauthorized Haitians back to a brutal dictatorship. With the support of Haitian voters, Clinton hoped to make President Bush, running for reelection, a one-term president. Clinton succeeded in winning the election, but even before taking office he announced that he would continue to enforce Bush's Haitian repatriation policy. How could the Presidents treat Cubans and Haitians so differently?"-- $c Provided by publisher.
