Seen. when the voters go to the polls two weeks from now. for the run off election. a cnn european affairs kmem at a timer and professor at ucla. live from los angeles. and good to see you to weigh in on everything that s gone on. i want to drill down a little bit more on what happened. with le pen. but first to the contest itself and how it s shaping up. how much of a role do you think so many of the issues that we have seen come to the fore in front will feature and i m speaking specifically about the culture wars, the issue of immigration, certainly it has grabbed headlines in france. in the last few years. they have. they re just indicative of the culture and identity wars that you refer to and le pen has been particularly astute at exploiting those.
