Jamaicans are extremely xenophobic.
Case in point was the elections of 1989 where the PNP slogan was "my leader born here" (Michael Manley)
Edward Seaga was born outside of Jamaica but a Jamaican none the less. He had been Prime Minister for 9 years at the time.
The election didn't really turn on that but the fact that it was a slogan tells everything
It's not the skin color either. There are plenty white Jamaicans
Quien sabe?
