Just FYI - Le Pen all for the French socialist nanny-state. As far as I have seen, she’s proposing no major changes to typical French top-down government.

Can you Hear the People Sing - French Version - Les Miserables Great singing and beautiful scenery.
My grandfather was from the Alsace-Lorraine area, so I have a stake in this. : )
She is Liberal on Social and Economic issues.
Does she have everyone and everything in the country arrayed against her?
Wish I had said that.
My great great ... was the aid du camp for Lafayette.
How else would you define said person and organization actively trying to destroy a sitting President and our Constitutional form of government? Obama and OFA are not off limits and above the law. Hillary isn't either. I hope someday they both see justice.
Shes very unlikely to win the second round.

You have joined an army of TENS OF MILLIONS!
"John has a long mustache..."
Macron will be the toughest one for her to defeat.

Macron is an EU-loving globalist who will quickly cause France to become another subservient member of the Caliphate.
You go girl!
And he polls way ahead of her.
