Jack Lang served as culture and education minister under this man, who famously replied "so what" when confronted with the fruits of an extramarital affair. Before serving in his most famous position, he served among others as interior minister for the UDSR, and became the leader of the PS. After two failed attempts, this man was able to win the presidency on the strength of his 110 propositions program. He became mired in controversy over his secret order to sink the Green Peace ship Rainbow Warrior, and earned early enmity by opposing de Gaulle in the 1958 Algiers Crisis. He appointed Fabius, Rocard and Cresson to the office of Prime Minister, and prior to his death from prostate cancer was forced into the so-called "cohabitation" with his longtime rival, Jacques Chirac. For 10 points, identify this President of France from 1981-1995 who was notably socialist.
