French conservative presidential candidate Nicolas Sarkozy watches a young bull run as he rides a horse at a ranch in Saintes-Maries de la Mer, the main town of the Camargue in southeastern France, April 20, 2007. The seaside resort of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, where some believe Mary Magdalene and other early Christians washed ashore in a boat from Jerusalem in 40 A.D., has attracted religious pilgrims for nearly two millennia. Besides its human inhabitants, the Camargue has long supported wild herds of black bulls and white horses, which have given rise to a French-style cowboy culture. (AP Photo/Christophe Ena)
