Like Huey Long, Willy Stark is an uneducated farm juven who passed the state lawyer exam and, like Huey Long, by implementing free reform designed to help poor farmers in the province, I will gain political power. Like Huey Long, Willie was assassinated at the doctor's peak - Dr. Adam Stanton is Willie, Dr. Carl A. Weiss of Long in the case. (However, unlike Willy, Dragon was assassinated after being a Senator and in fact was challenging President Franklin Roosevelt to appoint a Democratic Party.)
