U.N. special envoy to Haiti and former U.S. President Bill Clinton (R) shops for Haitian style bracelets while at Labadie resort near the northern city of Cap Haitian during his two day trip to promote tourism and industry in Haiti in this October 2, 2009 file photo. Clinton, who ordered the 1994 military action that restored Aristide, has been visiting Haiti since the 1970s and said political risk here is at its lowest point in his lifetime. He encouraged foreign investors to look toward Haiti. On his tour of Labadee and Sans Souci last week, he even had suggestions to showcase artists from Haiti, who are world renowned for their colorful, naif painting style.
