Political Views of your Teachers/Professors

[Associate Justice PiT]

     If you know what they are, of course.

     For me, my French teacher is an arch-conservative independent. There is no stronger supporter of the UMP than him, though his opinion of Sarkozy turned sharply after Sarkozy married Bruni. As a side note, he strongly prefers Le Pen to any Socialist due to the issue of immigration. As another side note, he voted for Kerry in 2004 after witnessing Bush's terrible debate performances. He ended up voting for McCain in 2008, & was upset to learn that Marin & San Francisco counties voted down Proposition 8 by roughly 3-1.

     My Civics/Economics teacher is an independent with no partisan leanings whatsoever. Not much else I know about his politics.

     My Current Events teacher is quite liberal. Once I got him to take the PM test, where he got a score of -6,-6. Despite that, he reads The Economist & is an ardent supporter of free trade. He is also generally more pragmatic than most people I know, though he gets freaked out if he thinks someone is denying the role of carbon dioxide in global climate change.

     My English teacher is a Berkeley-educated arch-liberal. He was hyper-conservative in his teenage years, though nowadays he completely resists almost any attempt to interfere with people's lives. He'll even defend practices such as polygamy, but he has deep reservations about allowing second trimester abortions, due to the possibility of the fetus feeling pain.

Where is he from in France?

     He was born in Agen & lived later in Seine-et-Marne, though I don't know where in the department.
