The Debate (2022 Elections for French Presidency 2/3)

Candidates for the Second Round, Facing their respective Programs.

By Francis LPublished 3 years ago 1 min read
Summurize of what people wait before the Debate Macron/Le Pen ((c) Europe 1)

They two passed the first round

as five years ago,

now they step to the ground

and let their mind go.

This is time for clarification,

this is time to show conviction.

One thing is common sense

respect and confidence.

An other thing is fear

and ways to rid it clear.

There are National says

and European sways.

"Politics is the art to make choices"

"We did it - each citizen rejoices !"

Such a departure in tone to reach the international,

the retirement pensions, the well-being of the hospital,

two paths to answer people's call for climate, the digital, ...

All that in time!

Many matters should be taken care for education -

In the right time -

Thus there is a subject with security. Make action!

Secularism should remain - but how ?

With institutions everybody would know

for sure!

All's couture :

This could be one conclusion ;

People make their decision.

Full debate between Marine Le Pen (left) and Emmanuel Macron (right) and presented by Gilles Bouleau (TF1 - private listed company and 1st TV channel of the Country (said 1st of Europe)) and Léa Salamé (in the name of France 2 - public State owned and 2nd TV channel of the Country).
