The elimination of former President Nicolas Sarkozy and Le Pen’s surge in the polls means that the National Front leader’s momentum will propel her into the Élysée Palace as the next French president, according to professor Jack Rasmus.
In an interview with RT, the Professor of Political Economy at St. Mary's College claimed the French people want a leader who is going to bring change. Express.
I have few problems with Marine Le Pen. She is of the right but NOT the hard right. She took Le Front National, shook it, discarded all the extreme policies and attitudes as well as kicking her odious father out into the long grass! That party is now no more than centre right. (Populist too - he added with a smirk!)
