I made the follow changes in my revision just to clarify that accuracy of the article:

"Upon assuming power, however, he adopted a dictatorial stance, culminating in a major conflict with Haiti's Senate in 1935. He created a new Haitian constitution giving him wide powers." -- this statement is opinionated and there are no citations given to back up the facts. I've replaced this with a referenced statement of fact.

"His popularity waned further when in 1937 he failed to respond to the massacre of 15,000 Haitian guest workers in the Dominican Republic, ordered by that country's president, Rafael Trujillo." --- The statement that his "popularity waned" and the exact number of "15,000" is an opinion not based on any referenced sources. Replaced this with a referenced statement of facts. Joel (talk) 20:12, 30 July 2008 (UTC) JuiceCowboy[reply]
