France's New Power Couple

This article in The Guardian provides an introduction to France's first socialist president in 20 years.  His politics may differ from that of his predecessor, but they have something in common as well.  They both have attractive and interesting partners.  Politics in France is nothing like politics in the US. Its hard to imagine a US president sharing the White House with a "partner", despite that fact that unmarried couples have become quite common in the US. Our presidents must reflect the values of a bygone era when Ozzie and Harriet were the model family on TV.
