WASHINGTON, D.C. (defend.ht) – A proposed list of names and seats of individuals who would form a provisional government after having obtained the resignation of Michel Martelly as President of the Republic of Haiti was released and according to sources, is already circulating the offices of diplomats in Haiti. The transitional government is said to have been by proposed by political and civil society organizations who also plan a series of protests to demonstrate their resolve.
Constitutionally speaking, in the event Michel Martelly would resign, outgoing-Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe would become the provisional President. The possibility for Lamothe gaining acceptance under these conditions are slim, therefore, the President of the Senate, assumed to be Reverend Senator Pierre Anick Francois, highest ranking member of the majority party among the sitting ten senators, would be next in line.
It is likely a senator would withdraw their possibility of being part of the transitional government for reasons of a fragile democracy. The Grand Corp is operating at one third of its capacity, with ten senators, and the entire Chamber of Deputies has run out its mandate.
The list below, that said to be proposed and more workable has two women at its head. Read to the listeners of RCH 2000, It is being described as a Dream Team, recalling the 1992 USA Men’s Olympic Basketball Team which featured Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.

- President: Mirlande H. Manigat, former First Lady
