"If he fails, let him at least fail by daring great things."
This quote from Theodore Roosevelt precedes the narration and re-reading of his presidential campaign,

Is Zemmourism dead for all that?
After all, for a first candidacy, it is more than François Bayrou in 2002, who does not give up becoming president in 2027;
and it's not so far from Jean-Luc Mélenchon in 2012, who, two tries later, imposed his strategy on the entire left.
