6 mayo 1928 año - Huey Long Elected Govenor

Descripción:

In May, Huey Long is elected Governor of Louisiana, under the slogan "Every man a king, but no one wears a crown", and begins a massive public works and enrichment program. His vicious attacks on corporate power and the upper class lead his detractors to label him socialist, which he viciously denies, calling the CSA and Socialist Party power-hungry conspirators aiming to topple the United States. Harder to deflect are the accusations of demagoguery and abuses of power.
