→Gaullist v center-right as a description for Sarkozy
I had initially called Sarkozy [[Gaullist]] and indeed created the (still-stub) article on [[Gaullism]], but later changed it to center-right. I see it's been changed back to Gaullist. I believe center-right is better for several reasons. First, Gaullism is linked with anti-Americanism, and Sarkozy is the most pro-American president in recent French history. Next, it fails to capture his commitment to pro-market policies. [[User:Tradcon|Traditional Conservative]] 22:50, 9 September 2007 (EDT)

:I am not well versed on the views of both men in regard to pro-market policies, but certainly the difference in attitude towards the United States is notable. I agree with the change that you propose. [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 01:14, 10 September 2007 (EDT)
