I had a U.S. History professor that hated Andrew Jackson so much that we just skipped his presidency in the class.

I read an article once in Look & Learn about Cola De Rienzi, demagogue of Rome. He decided that being born in 1313 must make him extra lucky, and became rabble rousing ruler of Rome while the Powp was off in Avignon. Then the mob turned against him and he was overthrown.

regarding Huey Long, is there a definitive view on his Goodness or Badness?
