Acknowledgements<br />
This capstone project could not have been properly completed without the help <strong>and</strong> support of<br />
several AUI’s faculty, <strong>and</strong> namely:<br />
Dr. Jack Kalpakian, academic advisor:<br />
Thank you for your five-year unconditional support <strong>and</strong> academic assistance. I really<br />
appreciated your pedagogic guidance throughout my curriculum at AUI.<br />
Thank you also for the hour-long discussions about US <strong>and</strong> French politics: I might today<br />
say that you confirmed my penchant for French politics, a state of affairs that ended up in<br />
this capstone research.<br />
Thank you finally for being one of the early supporters of the website idea.<br />
Dr. Eric Ross, capstone class teacher:<br />
Thank you for your precious guidance on all the capstone-related problems I encountered<br />
throughout the semester.<br />
Thank you also for letting me burst into your office without appointment for my<br />
“technical” concerns all semester long.<br />
Thank you for your accurate <strong>and</strong> thoughtful advices <strong>and</strong> suggestions: I appreciated your<br />
professionalism <strong>and</strong> availability.<br />
Thank you finally for succeeding in making this capstone experience a unique one.<br />
Dr. <strong>Nicolas</strong> Migliorino, capstone’s supervisor:<br />
Thank you for first <strong>and</strong> foremost for bringing in the Bonapartist ingredient into this<br />
capstone research - I would have missed an important part in my tackling of today’s French<br />
politics without your initial recommendation.<br />
Thank you for your kind supervision, <strong>and</strong> mostly for the meticulousness of your reviews<br />
<strong>and</strong> your overall theoretical framing. I really appreciated it.<br />
Dr. Bouziane Zaid, capstone’s second reader:<br />
Thank you for your involvement in this capstone research since day 1: your continuous<br />
support <strong>and</strong> assistance helped me in keeping the effort sustained all semester long.<br />
Thank you finally for your precious guidance, especially on the heavy “political<br />
communication” chapter: I sincerely would have dashed it off without your framing help.<br />
