Francis Parker Yockey is an American politician, attorney and political philosopher, and potential presidential candidate of the 1972 American election. He is the leader of the American National Vanguard, a National Socialist party in the National Progressive Pact.

Procedure On Achieving the Yockey Presidency

Like getting Gus Hall as president, the player must fail in pretty much every major decision or conflict, which may include:

  • Prolonging and failing US Proxy Wars (i.e. South Africa, Indonesia and Iran) to get massive domestic unrest and trigger wide-scale radicalization amongst the population.
  • Pass the Civil Rights Act to get George Wallace elected and then impeach him.
  • As Wallace's vice president Curtis LeMay, provokethe Dixiecrat southern base by passing a new Civil Rights Act, angering and further radicalizing the NPP-FR base to the point where they defect to Yockey's faction.
  • Have Barry Goldwater win the 1968 election, then fail as him by not being able to get legislation passed and get caught targeting the unions.
  • Destroy the unity of the Republican-Democratic Party and ensure that NPP unity is fairly high by 1972.
  • Getting 20% party popularity for the Yockeyites will allow Yockey to be the 1972 NPP presidential candidate.
  • If the above methods fail, you can use console commands to give Yockey 100%+ party popularity to win the election.

Trivia

The developers chose Yockey over the far more well known George Lincoln Rockwell due to them feeling Rockwell was overused. Rockwell is still referenced in the game as the namesake of Fall Rockwell, Hermann Göring's invasion of the United States.

In OTL, Yockey did not rise to popularity nor pursue active action in politics, instead he chose to write and a minor figure in fascist circles globally. Famous for writing "Imperium: The Philosophy of History and Politics" under a pseudonym, he would be arrested by the FBI for after discovering his false passports after a trip to Canada, he would commit suicide in FBI custody in 1960.

The music for the super event of his presidency is America's national anthem, The Star Spangled Banner played in a mournful minor key, as a jab at the player that they have killed the last democracy in the world.
