The French have showed up in force today for the first round of their presidential election. Early turnout, apparently, has reached levels not seen since 1981.

Is it not true that the French are starting the process of electing not only a president but a member of your government as well? Through the wonders of the European Union, the new head of state of the French Republic will also become a fully paid-up member of the EU Council, that elite supranational institution that decides many of your laws and policies.

Good luck with that!
