So, I know HP wasn't really global, but I think the scope needs to be broadened.

Let's talk about more politics that affect larger scopes.

Marine Le Pen is a larger scope.

For those who are not up-to-date on French politics, Marine Le Pen is a politician who is the candidate of the National Front, a French far-right party that has issues with being considered racist.

Marine Le Pen says she is attempting to shed that image, and that her father no longer represents the party, but he still remains the honorary President. To her credit, Marine did attempt to have her father removed as President, but that measure failed in French court.

She also has no qualms with exploiting a tragedy (Charlie Hebdo) while suing the same publication on which the attack took place.

Some people condemn her reactions... but there are plenty of people that her message is resonating with, including millennials who are increasingly worried after the Bastille Day Attacks, where a tractor trailer was driven through a crowded area, kill 86 people. People are viewing it as a consequence of allowing Syrian refugees seeking asylum in France due to the Syrian Civil War.

The political climate in France seems to be as contentious as the one the United States. There may be a chance that Marine Le Pen could take France's election, but she has stiff competition from two other candidates, François Fillon from The Republican party and Emmanuel Macron from Le Marche!

What are some alternate viewpoints on this? I am not a conservative; I think it's well established that I am (almost) as left as you can get.

What do you think this means for the global political climate? What do you think some consequences of these elections could be?
