jobs, healthcare and wages are high priority<br />

for the middle class and the poor.<br />

I will exercise my vote based on those<br />

issues<br />

C STEPHEN DUNN<br />

MINISTER OF<br />

RELIGION, ATLANTA<br />

As a Jamaican immigrant, I am concerned<br />

that a Trump presidency will<br />

restrict the access of immigrants worldwide<br />

from being a part of a nation that<br />

was built by immigrants. As for Clinton,<br />

I am fearful that she will cave in to Wall<br />

Street and her donors -and allow them to<br />

take advantage of many immigrants who<br />

have worked painstaking hard to achieve<br />

things like home ownership and education<br />

for their children.<br />

KAROL THWAITES<br />

LEGAL SUPPORT SPECIALIST,<br />

NEW YORK<br />

This election process has created a sort<br />

of controlled distress, dread and anxiety<br />

within me and many of my friends and<br />

family. This unfamiliar ‘election hell’ is<br />

unfathomable. This is the most important<br />

election of our lifetime and it is absolutely<br />

imperative that every person who<br />

can vote does so as this vote is not only<br />

for us but for generations to come. I pray<br />

we can continue to live in a country with<br />

freedom and dignity.<br />

MARCIE-ANN JONES<br />

GRADUATE STUDENT, CALIFORNIA<br />

This is my first time voting but one<br />

of the candidates gives me nightmares.<br />

From multiple reports, he is a compulsive<br />

career groper, abusive, disrespectful and<br />

just this morning (Tuesday) we are hearing<br />

he has ties to the Kremlin and hasn’t<br />

paid federal tax in decades. He will never<br />

get my vote. In his fantasy world the Miss<br />

Universe girls would end up as Supreme<br />

Court justices. When I see him on the<br />

news I get nervous as I think he’s gonna<br />

break out from the TV and assault me.<br />

Legal case against former speaker will<br />

not be dropped, says St. Kitts-Nevis AG<br />

BASSETERRE, St Kitts (SKNIS) -- Attorney<br />

General Vincent Byron said that<br />

the previous Douglas-led administration<br />

in St Kitts and Nevis “walked on the constitution”<br />

when for 26 months the former<br />

speaker of the house, Curtis Martin, “refused<br />

to table a motion of no confidence<br />

that had been filed with the clerk as the<br />

constitution required, as following the<br />

rule of law required.”<br />

He made these comments at the prime<br />

minister’s monthly press conference on<br />

networking<br />

identifying a possible niche market, accumulating<br />

capital and then launching with a<br />

well-put-together business plan, which she<br />

is executing.<br />

A staple element of the ANW sessions,<br />

is live open-microphone and scheduled<br />

professional entertainment. This October<br />

session drew several young and aspiring<br />

vocalists, as well as established recording<br />

artistes, Ameena Caesar and Cheryl Vincent<br />

of Grenada, and Vincentian soca sensation,<br />

Orande ‘Bomani” Charles.<br />

The next Afterwork Networking Wednesdays’<br />

session will be held at Trelawnie Place<br />

on November 30th, 2016 at 6pm.<br />

In addition to the live entertainment<br />

and a planned giveaway-raffle, using the<br />

business cards of participants as a free<br />

ticket, the publisher of <strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Times</strong>,<br />

Michael Babwar and the managing director<br />

of Bernie’s Party Land, Kennedy Phillip;<br />

and attorney Brenda Morgan-Lake,<br />

are scheduled to deliver brief presentations.<br />

Babwar and Phillipwill share details<br />

on inexpensive, creative ways to market<br />

and promote small minority businesses,<br />

using mass media and special activities;<br />

while Morgan-Lake will address immigration<br />

issues and answer.<br />

Wednesday.<br />

“And for 26 months, there was a song<br />

and dance in this country, dragging us<br />

through all sorts of hoops without having<br />

a motion of no confidence,” said the<br />

attorney general, while adding “there was<br />

talk that it was not necessary -- as soon as<br />

possible they could decide when it was.<br />

Clearly there had been a serious breach.”<br />

The attorney general dismissed calls by<br />

the defeated Douglas-led St Kitts-Nevis<br />
