The French minister of the interior, leading candidate in the French election, came to Washington and New York to demonstrate French solidarity with America, according to
The Washington Post:
Sarkozy said the French remember American heroism in France's defense in two world wars. He also recalled that the United States and France have never gone to war, a situation that contrasts sharply with the violence that marked U.S.-British ties in early U.S. history.
He's certainly won my endorsement. Vive Sarkozy!
