Despite his backward conservative views on social issues, Sarkozy is better than Royale, whose only goal is to even further destruct the French economy. How people with fuctioning brains can vote for her, totally beats me..... The only logical explination is an utter hate for la Republique Francaise...
Well, it's obviously not her goal to destruct France, but can you explain to me how her plans would lead to that? I think Royale would be better than Sarkozy, even though I'm not a socialist, simply because Sarkozy addresses the cultural/social issues completely wrong. France needs a mental metamorphosis, and Sarkozy might just offer it. Example: finally she admits that the agricultural subsidies should reform (or just disappear). Although France benefits from that, it's that kind of protectionism that keeps France behind in a world with increasing globalisation.
