In France "Election Fever" is already gripping possible Candidates and their Parties: there is a strong possibility that a New President to replace Hollande will be elected in May 2017 !
President Hollande has had a disasterous first four years in office and the lowest Opinion Poll ratings of any previous President of the Fifth Republic ! But, in spite of this "little problem", he desperately wants to be able to stand for a second term of 5 years !
Many Socialists want a Primary selection of the Party Candidate but Hollande wants to avoid that, come what may ! All his "inner circle of Ministers" are actively doing all they can to help his campaign.
Hollande made 60 promises to electors when he defeated Sarkozy in 2012, some of which have been kept. This time, with his re-election in mind, he has started early ! Teachers, Farm workers and Civil Servants have already benefitted ....Christmas has come early !
The cost of his generosity is estimated to be at least 4 billion Euros, but French coffers are empty ! Taxpayers anxiously want to know how his "gifts" will be financed, but ..... that is a well kept secret !
