Huey Long

Huey Pierce Long Jr, or simply Huey Long, is a potential candidate for the Democratic Party in the 1932 presidential election. An isolationist with populist views on economic restoration, his campaign has been summarised by his slogan, "Every Man a King". Long has been highly critical of incumbent President Herbert Hoover, believing his mishandling as President accelerated the American economic crisis of 1929.

Huey Long is a reluctant candidate. Despite showing some support for candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt, Roosevelt's soft handling towards socialism has made him a highly critical candidate, and because of Long's isolationist policies, a policy that is still popular in the United States, Long may have a chance to usurp the nomination from the economic reformist.

Long has proposed massive federal spending, a wealth tax and wealth redistribution as part of his campaign to battle the economic climate, under his "Share Our Wealth" plan. He is exceptionally sceptical of the rising Corporatist movement, and believes that corporate control under Alphonse Capone would be more disastrous for America than beneficial, and would turn America into a de facto corrupt state controlled by the enterprises.
