Seems like most people that drool over Long and his actions disagree with the same things going on right now.
That's why I'm asking.

Same could be said about Edwin Edwards and there are a lot of idiots in LA that would LOVE to vote the human garbage back in to office.
I love Louisiana, but when it comes to politics Louisianians are dumb, gullible, and willing to accept corruption if they think it benefits them.

The opening chapter of T. Henry Williams book on him is great. Its all about Long out "lefting" FDR

He was a man of his time. He figured out how to break the Planter/NOLA Old Regular oligarchy that had a stranglehold on the state. His methods may have been questionable, but change was needed, and he provided that change. When he took office there was less than 100 miles of paved highway in the state. Think about that for a minute.

When John Parker took office, there was less than 100. He put up over 300..Long then put up over 3000
I'm preparing an essay for this as we speak

He was a ruthless and dirty facist, but did a lot of things to bring La. into the 20th century.
Pretty complicated legacy.
