Hello, /int/

I've made a Nolan Chart on all 42 candidates running, or expected to run for the French Presidency that will occur in April 2017.

Well, I guess you can understand what's written, but I'll translate you anyways: Up, it's the progressists candidates, Down, it's the conservatives. Left, it's the commies, right, it's the liberals.
The ones with a star are the eurosceptics

I'm studying Law in the best french Law school, and the chart has been approved by another french forum. So it should be pretty accurate.

Any question?
>>

Colors = the candidate's party color. Some have the same color, but belong to different parties.
The grey ones are the independent candidates.

Source: http://www.lejdd.fr/Politique/Presidentielle-2017-qui-sont-les-candidats-officiels-et-officieux-779949 . I've added Lagarde and Veron, they forgot to mention them.

S.Guyot is the candidate for the "Blank vote". People vote for him if they are unsatisfied with the other ones. He litterally has no other program so I put him as a centrist.
He's the only one I couldn't classify.

Well, I thought someone would give a fuck about this

Saforcada est un no-name dont personne n'entend parler, c'est normal.
C'est un Bonapartiste, qui souhaite remettre sur le trone de france un empereur de la lignee de Napoleon. Forcement, il est tres conservateur mais sans forcement etre extremiste.
Il veut quand meme virer les non-blancs de france

Carl Lang est un peu connu, si on s'interesse un tant soit peu a la politique francaise. C'est un ancien FNiste, suivant la ligne Jean-Marie Le Pen. Il jugeait que le FN prenait une tournure gauchiste et moins autoritaire.
C'est le dirigeant du Parti de la France, le principal parti de l'extreme-droite "dure" en France.
C'est juste un c/c de Jean-Marie, forcement plus radical que sa fille.
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parti_de_la_France

Quand a Lesquen, c'est un independant qui commence a se faire connaitre. C'est un ultraliberal-ultraconservateur ouvertement raciste, qui qualifie Obama de "negre bon a rien". Il traite aussi Marine de "gauchiste aimant se tremousser sur de la musique negre"
A savoir que c'est une personnalite plutot connue dans les Hauts-De-Seine, et qu'il obtient des scores plutot importants a chaque election la-bas.
Son programme est assez tordant, jettes-y un coup d'oeil: https://lesquen2017.com/le-programme/

He's basically a libertarian. He wants to privatize everything but the police and the army.
He's also pro-all: abortion at any month, drugs, guns.

He's also a pro-democracy: he wants to replace our upper parliament (the Senate) with a room of citizens chosen randomly

Surprizingly, he never mentions immigration. He's not against it, without being a cuck

>>57649180
Communist: Left-Wing economical policy
Liberal: Right-Wing economical policy
Progressist: Left-Wing social policy
Conservative: Right-wing social policy

The most Communist party in France is Lutte Ouvriere (Worker's Struggle) with Nathalie Arthaud.
They want a pure commie state, but progressist instead of conservative like USSR or Cuba.
They also are pro-democracy, and spit on URRS for being a dictatorship.
Their supporters are often anarchist students that want to fuck everything up and invite as many refugees as possible in France
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutte_ouvri%C3%A8re

The most Conservative candidate is Henry de Lesquen, who wants to annex Belgium, set a death penalty for homosexuals, get the "niggers" out of France.

The most progressive/liberal candidate is Aurelien Veron with the Parti Liberal Democrate.
He's basically a libertarian
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parti_lib%C3%A9ral_d%C3%A9mocrate_(France)

Arthaud might get 1 to 2% of the votes.
The other ones won't ever get a %.

So if I follow your chart correctly Le Pen and her boys are commies?

>>
>>57649626

The more you are on the commie side, the more you tend to be commie.
Marine Le Pen wants to increase the minimal wage to 1.800e/month, to take the retirment age to 60 years, and all her economical program is pretty much the same than the main radical left party's one

>>57649819

Well, there are not "commies", but they are left wing economically. Protectionism, protection of the workers above all, nationalisation of some industries, etc.

They are nationalist and socialist at the same time :^)

Yeah, they get support mainly because of anti-immigration sentiment, also because people are tired of "mainstream" politicians. But their left wing economic program means that they more or less took the working class vote from the socialists and communists.

I put a black line under the names of the candidates that might have a decent shot. You will notice that there are no left wing candidate, but that's because no big leftist candidate had announced their candidature.

I am aware that Sarkozy was president before, was he good or did he lose for a reason
>>
>>57649626
>can you circle the candidates that actually have a chance/name them?
Holland (the current President) from Parti Socialiste (don't let the name fool you, PS are neo-liberl sell-outs), and Sarkozy who is a former President is running on the Republican (conservative) platform.
>>
>>57649626
>>57649819

The Presidential election is a two-round system.
The parties that might have a chance to pass are:
- Le "Front National" (National Front) with Marine Le Pen - Main far-right party
- Les Republicains (The Republicans). The candidate will be chosen via a primary soon - main Right-wing party
- Le Parti Socialiste (Socialist Party), probably with Francois Hollande - Main centre-left party
- Le Mouvement Democrate (Democratic Movement) with Francois Bayrou - Main centric party
- Le Front de Gauche (Left Front), supporting Jean-Luc Melenchon. - Main Radical-left party

The Republican primary winner will be probably either:
- Alain Juppe, a moderate & liberal (38%)
- Nicolas Sarkozy, a radical conservative (27%)
- Bruno Le Maire, a moderate (17%)
- Francois Fillon, a radical liberal (8%)

Frenchies are tired of Hollande. There is only a very few chances he will pass the 1st round.
Menelchon is too radical to seuduce the frenchies. France never elected a radical left candidate, and it won't happen soon.
Bayrou won't run if Juppe is chosen as the Republican candidate, and it probably will be the case.
All the polls are clearly telling since 1 to 2 years the 2nd round will be opposing Juppe to Le Pen, and Juppe will win with a large majority. That's probably what will happen

>French politicians are mostly economically liberal

Ye, no, Pierre.

OP here. I'll have to disagree with you.
J.F Cope has no chance of winning the presidential elections. Bruno Le Maire and Francois Fillon do.

You can also underline Hollande and Bayrou

Her economical program is close to Sander's. Except she doesn't want to tax the wealthies.

She has a shitton of irrealistic propositions, such as bringing the minimal wage to 1,800 a month (currently 1,100), downing the retirment age to 60 years, reinject billions in the army, schools, police, and tons of retarded things like this

Well, personally I think Sarkozy is probably one of the slimiest, most disgusting politician in the country. In 2007 he ran on a program of toughness on crime, but also he heavily emphasized his immigrant background, as political stunt to bring leftists to vote for him. He tried to create "discrimination positive", basically affirmative action, which was deemed unconstitutional and eventually dropped and never talked about again.

Basically he will say anything to get to power.

Now that he noticed the rise of the far right, he's been trying to steal votes from the FN, and is failing at it.

To me it seems like he wasn't a good president, but to be fair he had to deal with the 2008 crisis. And I only started really paying attention to politics a few years ago.

>>57650383
Francois Fillon and Bruno Le Maire are at 10% in the Republican primary. They have no chance. Didn't even know Bayrou was still alive.

And Hollande ? Seriously ? Leftists hate him because he's not left enough, the Right hate him because he is too much of a leftist. The only times his popularity goes up is when he deals pretty well with terrorist attacks.

>>57650752
>>57650865

>This is probably a stupid question but is there any pro-gun candidate
Yes that is a stupid question. There is no """pro-gun""" candidate in France mainly because France is a civilized country that doesn't allow or think it's normal for mentally ill teens to walk in and buy machine guns and assault rifles with high-capacity clips.

Nobody speaks or think about it. There isn't any country allowing guns in Europe.
It just isn't a European thing. We never did have a debate on the subject, and I think almost all of the french people don't want to have one

Hollande will probably be the PS candidate. I'm not saying he will pass the 2nd round, I'm saying he has a chance of winning the presidency.
People from EELV or DLF won't have a chance.
François Fillon and Le Maire are not at 10%, and the polls are unstable. Copé is at 3% currently.

>>57651363
None of them are known.
Smati is slightly, slightly known. He's a buisnessman that just launched a very discreete campaign. He's a moderate and express himself clearly during debates.
If he manages to run as a candidate, which could happen, he could do 0,5% at the best
>>
>>57650095
So can someone clarify "communiste" vs "liberal" for me more?
Dans Amerique, évidemment, les mots sont faux. Est-ce "libéral" signifie "individualiste"? Dans Amerique, ceux qui sont opposés.
>>
>>57651363
And Boudjekada isn't known at all, even by the most interested politists.
He's just a young guy with absolutely no program that just wants to play with the fact that he's a muslim to get some votes. He's not religious.

Smati never mentions his religion though.

We don't have any muslim party in france. Only a movment that lasted the time of an election, and that had just the word "Muslim" in it, but wasn't religious at all
>>
>>57651622
It's simple: from left to right is the economical position
From up to down is the social position.

If a candidate tend to be a commie, he is more left-winged on the economy. If he tend to be a liberal, he is more right-winged on the economy

>>57651622
Communist means left liberal means right
Liberal generally means Classical Liberal (think Tea Party with less religious nuts) in places that aren't the US, the Democrats have distorted its meaning here (they are social liberals, which is basically socialism lite with all the SWEDEN YES social policies and center-right economic policies)
>>
>>57651622
Liberal economics is free market, deregulation, tax cut, small government kind of stuff. Out of our primary presidential candidates, if you put them on that x-axis, Sanders would be the leftmost and a Rand Paul would probably be the rightmost

If I was American, I think I would like to have guns. And train me and my family to use them, and properly take care of them. In France, though ? I think only hunters want them. You're right, we just don't have a gun culture.

Wait, I don't get how you guys don't get it.

In the US, for you, Left Wing (Democrats) = more Commie and Progressist, Right Wing (Republicans) = More Liberal and conservative, right?
Now, how do you classify a Liberal-Progressist? Or a Commie-Conservative?
In which party would go a candidate like sanders, but pro-life, anti-immigration?

No. There are almost no coalition in france, and there isn't a party for everything unfortunately.
We and UK (and Romania) have a majoritary vote rather than a proportionnal, like in all other EU countries.
We only have 2 main parties in our parliament because of it.

Sure. But that would be suicide for the PS.

So you were asking for all the people that might go to the first round ? Because to me "having a chance" means capable of going to the second round.

>People from EELV or DLF won't have a chance.

Of course they don't. Who was that Ecologist guy who said the the Green party was only the party "of Palestine and gypsies nowadays" ?

>François Fillon and Le Maire are not at 10%, and the polls are unstable

Yes they are. And the polls seem pretty stable to me, the only thing changing is Sarkozy vs Juppé. But I fucked up by putting a line under Copé, I'm not sure why I thought he was more popular. Guess all the media fuss around his new book recently made me think that.

>>57651865
Cruz would be considered a religious nutjob (remember, we are very very secular nation), Trump even more far right than Le Pen. The average cuckservative, though, I don't know. Our right wing is not as right wing economically as yours. And our far right is left economically, and right on social issues.

>>57651940
They used to vote PS, every time. But it's changing, now they go further farther left.

>>57652093
They are slightly less into identity politics, mostly because it's only starting to be a thing here. Other than that, they are social democrats, like Sanders. Brittany voted left because there are less Muslims there.

>>57652299
>America contains 2 parties, and they're destroyed the possibility of ever getting more.

And then you have Trump who is clearly a third party by himself using the Republican primary as a stage. And that's why he's doing so well.

>>57651990
Any chart that is similar to yours always shows both our parties are far up and to the right despite that being blatantly not true

Its really hard to express and I had a much longer post that was hard to follow, so I will sum it up:

Democrats encapsule the left, socially left economic center (this varies more, Bernie is hard left for us while Clinton is less so), Bernie is a madman who is SWEDEN YES tier and retarded, Clinton is more moderate but a liar, criminal and insane who only has a chance because of her vagina. They have some core beliefs that are rarely strayed from like being anti-gun, this party has a great deal of control over itself due to mechanisms such as Superdelegates

The Republicans are generally more socially conservative (this is strayed from very often in the Northeast and West) and economically conservative. It is very fractured with many factions such as the Tea Party (Very Religious and very very Classically Liberal guys) Populist/Trumpists (Trump) and Establishment (Neocon Bushist guys). Less control over their own party, again core beliefs like (I will use the opposite to the democrat) pro-gun

>Liberal-Progressit
based off what your chart implies this, they would most likely be Democrat unless you mean libertarian in which case they would be Republican (Unless they are some SJW NO BORDERS shit)

>Commie Conservative
they would never gain any traction whatsoever and would probably be rejected from both parties

Also instead of Progressit please use Social Liberal
Instead of Communiste use Economic Liberal
Instead of Liberal use Economic Conservative
Instead of Conserateur use Social Conservative

Because the original words mean something VERY different here than in France and its is very hard to properly wrap my head around what you are talking about.

America has two parties because of its system not because of the party's actions

the current parties have lasted so long however because they have made it harder for a party to usurp them, but the parties have still effectively changed and are only still the same as the original in name

>>57652759
Hillary is a criminal and an untrustworthy liar who is also insane
Ted is slimy but I like many of his policies, (due to me being raised near NYC I am very ambivalent about social issues despite me being very Republican, him being very socially conservative doesn't bother me), I will probably vote for him. I am in New York. He also has the best ability to win out of the 3 Republicans left imo

I would vote for Kasich but him winning would endanger the party's stability, infuriating 80% of its voters is not a good strategy, Romney proved that even with all the independents you can still lose horribly

I am going to clarify that by "I am very ambivalent on social issues" I mean weed/abortion and similar issues that I just don't care about. I am very pro-gun and believe we need to secure our border however Trump's wall is retarded. I am also very anti-PC and if Trump did a good thing it was bring that into the spotlight
>>
>>57652477
Trump is a populist. And there hasn't been a "right wing" populist since Andrew Jackson. He's popular because he's showing exactly how corrupt the system is. If he does make a third party, then the least liked candidate (clinton) will get 100% of the power. First past the post sucks

Ah.. Mais, I'm still biased toward them... Merde, j'ai d'une drapeau de brétagne sur mon mur maintenant.

when I said "they" i didn't mean the parties themselves. I meant the fact that FPTP nearly always leads to a two-party system.

you can hardly compare since our countries have very different issues, but being "pro-life" and pro guns in France pretty much garanties you a spot in the far right, although no one seriously brings those issues. French far right tends to be anti-capitalist also.

retirement age was 60 years old 4 years ago. Lowering it even further could be sustainable if the productivity gains went into the social security system instead than Panama.

I didn't mean to imply that you didn't, nor that you should like his explanation. But he isn't entirely wrong on how the system tends to work. Third parties do nothing but ensure the election to the opposing party.

J'habite pas dans France, alors je connais pas exactement. Mais je sais que le taux de fécondité est insoutenable dans plus d'Europe et d'Amerique. France n'a pas à mal que d'Amerique, mais je pense que c'est 2.0? Il doit être 2.1.

>extrème droite est anti-capitaliste

People have been saying for the entire thread that the far right here is left wing economically.

They are closer to national socialism/fascism, though obviously not there yet. What is hard to understand ?

>>57653775
France is at 2.08. Considering 40% of newborns have at least one immigrant granparents, the French people are not the ones reproducing. But the FN wants to implement natalist policies

La fécondité n'est pas un problème quand la productivité d'un travailleur est des dizaines de fois supérieurs à ce qu'elle était il y a des décennies. Le modèle français consistant à aller vers toujours moins de travail pourrait fonctionner, s'il n'était pas parasité par les plus riches.
>>
>>57653775
long story short, the french far right was built on royalism, then anti-parlementarism, not economics.
Our political divisions are for the most part direct heritage of the revolution

>>57653885
>far right here is left wing economically
Alors est-ce l'extrême gauche qui est droite sur le plan économique? Ou est-ce qu'il ya quelqu'un qui est d'extrême droite économique?

>France est à 2.08
In that case, nevermind. Le nombre exact est 2.07. Je suis impressionné!

Ça c'est une position idéologique. Personnellement je n'ai rien contre le fait que l'état redistribue.

To go a little bit further in the history course, the french left and right were born on the vote for Louis the XVIth execution, the left being yes voters, the right behing "no" voters.

mais, voyons voir:

>was criticized for an unruly savage by opposition
>his very existence was enough to strike fear into the hearts of the establishment
>backing was based on the "voice of the people"
>had the nomination stolen from him by establishment in a contested convention
>ran as a third party and their party lost
>it was then revealed how corrupt the selection process was and he won in a landslide the next election

...yup sounds like Trump in the next few months

>>57654534
>personnellement je n'ai rien contre le fait que l'état redistribue.
oui, je suis d'accord. mais aussi, je voudrais être en mesure de se le permettre... Maintenant, les personnes de plus de 65 sont sur 13% de notre population. On ne peut pas acheter leur pensions.

C'est impressionant que France peut.
>>
>>57654690
>On ne peut pas acheter leur pensions.
sure you can, through more taxes.
>>
>>57654997
Mais, à quelle hauteur sont vos impôts maintenant? Je suis d'accord avec l'augmentation des impôts, mais seul s'il la charge est raisonnable..

Et est-il une meilleure façon? Peut-être pas... Peut-être je suis traditionaliste car je voulais l'église pour aider plus le pauvre.

I hope you don't think I'm arguing with you... I mostly agree with you, but I just have a bit of distrust for government. Je connais que ton goveurment est peut-être moins corrompu que le mien.. mais aucun gouvernement est parfait.

Avez-vous les "libertarians" dans France?
>>
>>57655413
tout ça c'est théorique, notre modèle social est sérieusement compromis en ce moment, et il y a un y une grande exaspération envers la classe politique, que ce soit à droite ou à gauche.
Je ne connais pas la définition exacte du libertarianisme, mais je ne crois pas que ce soit un courant majeur ici. Il y a peut être quelques représentants, mais ça ne mobilise pas les foules, c'est assimilé à la droite libérale. (dans le sens libéral économiquement, "libéral" en France ne veut jamais dire "de gauche")
>>
>>57655798
>"libéral" en France ne veut jamais dire "de gauche"
ouais. c'etait le gauche dans amerique qui volé ce mot.

"libertarianism" est notre mot pour "minarchisme", bien que peut-être pas aussi extrême... c'est les partisans qui preferent le gouvernement très petit.

Le politique dans France me intéresser toujours. Mais c'est triste qu'il n'y a pas beacoup comme moi. Si je viens à France un jour, je serais étranger dans la pays qui ma famille est originaire de.
>>
>>57656275
if you are discussing American libertarians they are basically anarchists
>>
>>57656644
sort of. libertarians don't advocate for the abolishment of the government (comme les anarchistes), just the reduction of it. American libertarians are more akin to minarchists than anarchists. only the idealists or the edgy go to strict anarcho-capitalism.

>I say this despite the fact that as an idealist, I support anarcho-capitalism
