About that Le Pen guy: I know I'm late on this (hey, I was on a date), but I think this is overall a bad thing. The political class of Europe certainly needs a shake-up, but this guy is straight-up a Fascist. His political platform sounds like Hitler's (who was fairly elected... the greatest failing of democracy is that it can kill itself, sadly), only without the overt anti-Semitism. Heck, it's even got that if you remember that Arabs are Semites (but that's a technical detail, the term "anti-Semitism" is generally understood to refer to Jews).
