FF, considering his economic views, and considering that his racial views were good for a Deep South white guy of that era.

I know, right? Carol Kennicott should have stayed in DC. She was never going to belong in Gopher Prairie.

You deserve a whole round of applause, Averroës.

Also Long was a FF given the time. Very complex and very flawed man, but totally villified out of proportion by many.
