Failed a macroecon course, GPA 3.8, top Poli Sci School in France (Please continue reading)

I have GPA of 3.8, but failed a macroecon class, however passed second time,but it still says failed first time on transcript.

What do you think my chances are of getting to good (top) political science grad school in the US?

Other than that, CV is perfect.

Make sure you have a good explanation as to why you failed the course the first time (ex. Family issues or something)
