Most French supported the letter of the generals. Unfortunately, they are in the same position as Americans, with a corrupt elite having a stranglehold on the country.
Democracy doesn't function. Only a constitutional republic does. Giving every breathing zombie a vote just makes it easier to hide fraud under the guise of mass stupidity. "See they voted for this". No, in fact we did not. But people will believe it, because it is easy to believe that the loud fools are actually the majority.
I thought the parliamentary system was superior to the Ameriburger two-party system?
France's system is like America's, except with run-off voting which is why you have several Uniparties rather than just two.
Proportional representation is generally what results in multiparty systems, not parliamentary.
Anyway, I'm not resolved on which system is more garbage. Our problem is that the Mitt Romney supporter types are not forced into a binary choice, but can vote for a "center-right" (means far-left in Europe) party, which is why it's very hard to get to 51% for anyone remotely decent. On the other hand, when you do get to 51% with the Mitt Romneys, you can't get anything done either. We're screwed no mater what happens.

Not even remotely close. A Prime Minister is nothing like a President and the process of "forming a government" looks like nothing we're familiar with.
Critically.. the President cannot "dissolve the legislature."

And not just fraudulent votes, but fraudulent parties that don't represent their constituents.

You know what Macron is, right?
This is correct. I was talking about the way the members of the legislature are elected. It's not proportional like in many European countries.
