Robert La Follette Jr.

Robert Marion "Young Bob" La Follette Jr. (February 6, 1895 – February 24, 1986) was an American politician. He served as the first Deputy Premier to William Z. Foster from 1934 to 1936 and was one of the most prominent Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party members. He was the oldest son of the progressive Republican and later Workers' Communist Party politician Robert M. La Follette Sr. and succeeded his previous position as the Senator of Wisconsin from 1925 to 1933 during the era of the Old United States.

Immediately after the revolution, La Follette Jr. became a senior member in the United Democratic Front, acting as a Deputy Primier to William Z. Foster during the First Cultural Revolution. After the dissolution of the Front, he was selected as a running mate to Franklin D. Roosevelt in the unsuccesful bid in the 1936 general elections. La Follette Jr. was replaced by Benjamin Gitlow as Deputy Premier.
