Who wanted Huey Long out of power?​

History
1 answer:
Fed [463]2 years ago
6 0
Answer:
Practically everyone
Explanation:
FDR was afraid Huey Long would contest the democratic vote in the 1936 election which would split the vote between FDR's "New Dealer's" and Long's "Share The Wealther's". Long also stepped on the toes of Louisiana politicians by using the power of his held office to the fullest extent and received overwhelming public support as he made text books free for all elementary school children, paved new roads, built new bridges, and founded Louisiana State University. All at the cost of the wallets of corrupt politicians who had their money took right out of their bank accounts by Long with his Taxes. To the outrage of the Klan and its sympathizers, Huey Long’s programs to uplift the poor meant that African Americans received public education, healthcare, tax exemptions, and the opportunity to vote free of charge (although the vast majority were still blocked from voting by local "Jim Crow" laws), among other benefits aimed at freeing the disenfranchised from the shackles of poverty. Black ministers even organized Share Our Wealth clubs among their congregations with Long’s blessing, a radical inclusion in 1930s America.

WILL B THE BRAINLEST
Bad White [126]

The correct answer is: "people should hold their governments accountable".

The Enlighment movement emerged in Europe and was constituted by philosophers that promoted Reason and the scientific method over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in monarchs or rulers "appointed by God". The resulting states that emerged based on the principles of this movement, enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history, and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.

Such Enlightment principles were transferred to the American colonies, where the population claimed for political representation rather than being governed by foreigners that were appointed by a foreign king. Such claims were ignored and the colonies, influenced by the new democratic principles, started several revolutionary movements for independence aiming to establish new independent states based on the Enlightment principles like in Europe. <u>States where people elect governors and have the power to remove them if they do their job badly and, hence, those governors are accountable to their citizens.  </u>
