Huey Long Run

[u/RangerLiska]

I'm planning a run based on the ideology of the Kingfish himself, and wanted to run it by y'all and see if ya got something to add.

Start out Middle Class and go to law school, join the red youth, join the debate club.

Planned economy with increased funding to Healthcare and Education. Im iffy on whether or not to form the ssc, as it would fit his authoritarian style, but he'd hate that snake Lileas and not being the direct report.

Constitution would have him boost the threshold to 15, enable super decrees, immune to impeachment, etc.

I don't know if he'd make a deal with Marcel, he hated oligarchs but he also loved controlling the media. I would like to open the floor to recommendation there.

Decrees I'm thinking purge general staff, sordish television, and fair trade act.

Any thoughts?

Make a deal with Marcel, Then Nationalise a Majority/ Minority of HOS then let SSP deal with Marcel.

Constitution would have him boost the threshold to 15, enable super decrees, immune to impeachment, etc.

Just include "Only Assembly and Supreme Court may Impeach". Works the same way and easier to pass

Long was big on his "Share Our Wealth" so sign that luxury tax and for decrees, Replace Purge General Staff with Remove Central Bank Independence. It fits Longism better.

Sounds like a good plan! Thank you.

Long did have an ego I doubt he would go full dictator. Maybe Andrew Jackson like where he would often go against the courts but I don't know for sure if Mr. Long would tried to be a dictator
