nb  looks like ...officials sovietcars, de Gaulle took in account every detail, he had to govern with communists 1945+ (25% of french voters, today <3%), and say "welcome" to C Party boss Thorez coming back from URSS. What is funny is Thorez was condemned to death 1939 in France, he was with Stalin, german's friend till 1941!

So with Petain, Verdun hero, de Gaulle needed to have him dead, to create "France libre", with Thorez, giving orders to french workers to make trouble after war started, Hitler's objective allied, de Gaulle said 'welcome".

Machiavel is far behind. To survive in France, you have to return vest and flag two three times in your political life.

500 cheeses!    How to govern it ?  The best goat cheese is:               SAINTE MAURE DE TOURAINE

Legend : after Poitiers Victory 732 against Maures and Sarrazins (today arabs) , abandonned women by defeated muslims gave the receipt how to do the cheese, and the gimmick of the straw in the middle, typical.

Today this cheese has nothing to do with muslim women as we may see on the ad pic' :

le Louvre : 1700 years of history inside, the building included!  our "Buckingham palace"

One of the nicest guests : HENRY IV : the nicest and funniest king, galant, wanting everybody happy, changing from protestants (the boss) to catholics boos again) to be king. Good, he protected protestants, after total victory on them, but giving them 60 "place fortes" military positions, Louis XIV could'nt admit.

INCREDIBLE : his friend Sully suggested !henry IV to convert to catholicism, to get the throne, but stayesd parpaillot himself ! and became the king's prime minister, war and finance, a top one.

Like if President 's ex-wife became ecologist minister today, like if PM would be right wing Chirac, and President socialist Miterrand.

Some paradoxes in France history and nowhere else. We hate so much dictature and absolute power we work on each election on Power's aequilibrium on Montesquieu's manner. Our friends in UK seem to have show us the way with chamber of the lords and chamber of the communes.

All that creates jobs for tough people, well payed, on condition they decide ...NOT to decide.

Today our Prim has no pecial success to shom in creating jobs, avoiding terrorism, etc .... Zero. So he is asking voters to be against someone, because they can't vote in France FOR. 3/4 of voters vote Against, or with going fishing, no voters are 50%, first party in France. Most of the other are against the other. "The hell is the other."

Me? 'm fine in kiribati, two wves, no right, no left, but sea wave , and baby boom, simulatenously !  LOL mankind !!!
