If one of Runrig can enter politics, why not Wyclef Jean?

Flags currently being run up various masts as Wyclef Jean tests the waters for a possible Haitian presidential bid:

In a statement, the family said, "Wyclef's commitment to his homeland and its youth is boundless, and he will remain its greatest supporter regardless of whether he is part of the government moving forward ... If and when a decision is made, media will be alerted immediately."

Immediately? Jesus, you'd have thought if you were making a big decision like that you'd at least want to have a cup of coffee and a biscuit to just get used to the idea before announcing it to the media. Just in case.
