- littlestymaar 4y agoIn France, most president were career politicians as well, AFAIK only three of them actually worked in the private sector at some point (Pompidou, Giscard d'Estaing and Macron, all of which were banker prior, in he same investment bank). So not a lot of diversity, but even if that's regrettable, it's pretty ridiculous to blame Mélenchon for that.
