Could a Constitutional Monarchy moderate the excesses of French republican ideology?  It's worth a try.

Absolutely, and it should be an absolute monarchy.  Find someone who thinks exactly like Louis XIV (or XVI) and put him in charge.

(Just kidding)

Exactly. If anything France isn't Republican enough.

No, I'm against monarchies.

The fifth Republic is no monarchy. The French president has less lowers than the President of the United States. For example, he hasn't even a full veto-power.

This is grossly naïve (unless you are referring to the rare situation where different parties control the Presidency and the National Assembly, which has happened twice across the entire Fifth Republic).

Louis XX of the House of Bourbon

Vs.


Napoleon VIII of the House of Bonaparte

Vs.


Henry VII of the House of Orléans



Clearly Henry VII is the most handsome of the trio of contenders.

It would likely be as mediocre and embarrassing as the Spanish Bourbon monarchy currently is, so no.

I'm an Orleanist so my preference of course would be Henri, the Count of Paris (Henri VII), but the Legitimist pretender Louis, Duke of Anjou (and Cadiz) (Louis XX) would be fine as well if ever there was a Restoration of the Monarchy. But at this point it isn't possible.

No, and anyone who proposes such a thing is un-American.

Restoring any monarchy in any given country is an abhorring idea.
