Politically, Moïse describes himself as a "restorative socialist." His party's political platform for the 2016 election cited Jean-Jacques Dessalines and Fidel Castro as his primary and secondary philosophical and ideological influences, respectively. His political program is based on the three core tenets of sovereignty, solidarity, and prosperity.^[1]
