'''Huey Pierce Long Jr.''' (August 30, 1893 - September 10, 1935), nicknamed "Kingfish," was a powerful American politician in the 1920s and 1930s, who built a ruthless [[Democrat]]ic machine in [[Louisiana]] as governor (1928–32) and U.S. Senator (1932-35). His base was among angry poor whites, both Protestant and Catholic (called "[[Rednecks]]" by the middle class enemies of Long.)
