Character State of Origin: Louisiana
Character State of Residence: Louisiana
Character Party Affiliation: Democratic

Main Strengths: is seen by many in Louisiana as the second coming of his grandfather Huey Long, populist, favored heavily among poor blacks and poor whites, commands the Louisiana Democratic Party with a heavy fist, bringing back the Share Our Wealth program, well-connected and generally loved in Louisiana, born-and-bred Southerner with lots of GOP crossover appeal, forceful political operator, king of the smoke-filled rooms but also a commanding speaker

Main Weaknesses: is seen by many around the country as the second coming of his grandfather Huey Long, endorsed Wolf over Clifford in 2016 (but has pledged to endorse a Democrat in 2020), uses way more Christian and religious rhetoric that most modern Democrats, regularly has to fend off allegations of socialism and communism, doesn't fit modern political paradigms

I think I can see Levi working really well with Jackson

Just don't stump for him.

[Free Ward Marchers]

YESSSS! Time to create Huey Long's great-grandson as the incumbent in Louisiana.

OMG Yes yes yes yes

ah yes left-wing populism for 2020

Glad to see that Fred Flintsone is in LOTF now.

Goodman played Huey Long in some made-for-TV movie in the '90's, so I figured he was a good look for him

He was in Speed Racer, also. Which, I'm guessing no one might have realized he was in.

Brookley could really get along with Jackson as her father always said he would've voted for Huey Long if he was alive to run against FDR

Dear god how power can you make a char.

[Sanabel]

He’s gonna have to be nerfed. Share Our Wealth ain’t coming back in post Obama Louisiana

[Velahor]

Ah, this should be interesting. Paulson got opposite advice from her campaign manager and Dietrich

[Free Ward Marchers]

Every U.S family should have a house, a car, a radio, and $5,000 ($89,408.03 inflation-adjusted) a month not a bad deal if i do say so myself

[Puertollano]

I think I can see Levi working really well with Jackson

That'd be fun Puert, I'd like to have a character of mine actually has a good relationship with one of yours lol considering Paulson's needling of Lilyana

This guy would also probably work really well with Papazian, but they have no reason to meet unless circumstances force it.

haha true

wdym post Obama Louisiana?

[Velahor]

There's likely the chance that Hurricane Katrina would have caused him issues too considering he's in the 2nd district. The character's strengths and weaknesses will stay mostly the same, but I'll cut Share Our Wealth and give him some weaknesses related to the handling of Katrina.

[The World Capitalist Confederation]

If a moderate Dem wins, expect either Battila-Kim or Zhou to be in the race. Asian-Americans are a very much ignored demographic, one just begging to get an Obama to boost turnout.

Along with the right of internet.

[Sanabel]

I need ideas for my progressive Colorado Representative.

I’m thinking environmentalist and/or academic.

Honestly, IRL if someone brought the share our wealth program back I would vote for them in a heartbeat

decriminalization of drug usage, with an emphasis of selling drugs still being illegal

Volker has responded.

Academic. We could use a new economist.

[Velahor]

Paulson is going to have to pee soon with all these drinks.

who?

I shelved some character ideas for a Green Party candidate, just in case progressives win the Democratic Party's primary.

[Sanabel]

Do we have any academics in office

[Velahor]

Do we have any academics in office

Faint flashbacks of Doctor Professor Governor Douglas Stephens...RIP

[Gordano and Lysandus]

Winthrop is also apparently an economist. Simone used to work for a foreign policy think tank. Wynne was a law professor, I think.
