Jacques Price entèvyouve Alexandre Lerouge, kandida pou depite Okap ki se sèl kandida ki pa divalyeris nan eleksyon 1979 yo. Lerouge dekri tout kalite menas li konn sibi, epi ki pwogram li genyen pou vil Okap la si li bon nan eleksyon. Li deklare li la, "tèt kale." Li espere eleksyon yo ap lib, kòm gouvènman Jean-Claude Duvalier ap swadizan "liberalize" aprè vizit Komisyon Entè-Ameriken Dwa Moun nan. Sepandan, li konnen gen yon sètèn aspè "rele Bouki 'Bouki,' l ap manje w. Pa rele l 'Bouki,' l ap manje w toujou" dèyè kandidati li. Aprè sa, Jean Dominique analize fenomèn Lerouge la, kote li sitye kanpay Lerouge la (ki te baze sou dwa moun ak lit kont lavichè ak koripsyon) nan kontèks sosyal ak istorik "popilis kapwa."
Jacques Price interroge Alexandre Lerouge, candidat à la députation pour le Cap-Haïtien, seul candidat non duvaliériste aux élections de 1979. Lerouge parle des menaces qu’il subit, et de son programme pour la ville du Cap-Haïtien, s’il est élu. Il espère que les élections seront libres, puisque le gouvernement Jean-Claude Duvalier est soi-disant en train de se libéraliser, après la visite de la Commission interaméricaine des droits de l’homme. Cependant, il reconnait que sa candidature a un aspect « rele Bouki 'Bouki,' l ap manje w. Pa rele l 'Bouki,' l ap manje w tou », c'est-à-dire que quoiqu’on fasse on a toujours tort. Par la suite, Jean Dominique analyse le phénomère Lerouge, en situant sa campagne, basée sur les droits humains, la lutte contre l’inflation et la corrpution, dans le contexte social et historique du populisme capois.
Jacques Price interviews Alexandre Lerouge, candidate for parliament for Cap-Haïtien and the only non-Duvalierist candidate in the 1979 elections. Lerouge describes the threats he has endured and his program for the city of Cap-Haïtien. He claims he's in it for real, all the way ("tèt kale"). He expresses hope that the elections will proceed freely, with Jean-Claude Duvalier's government's supposed liberalization in terms of human rights following the visit of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. Nonetheless, he acknowledges that there is a certain "damned if you do, damned if you don't" aspect to his candidacy ('Rele Bouki "Bouki," l ap manje w. Pa rele l "Bouki," l ap manje w toujou.') Jean Dominique then analyzes the Lerouge phenomenon, placing Lerouge's campaign (with its promises of human rights and resistance to corruption and the rising cost of living) in the historical and social context of "Capois populism."
