Quickly rising in the German-American community (but most of them didn't recognized themselves in Kuhn's speeches), Fritz Kuhn quickly entered the rightist America First Union Party, first as a simple militant and later to a more prominent position. Under [[Huey Long]]'s leadership, the AUS got rid of its most embarassing and rabid elements, such as leaders of the former Ku Klux Klan, and came as an authoritarian, militarist, anti-Marxist, ultranationalist and corporatist political force, but still respectuous of institutions and vowing to unite the many communities of America to get out of the crisis. The most racist, antisemitic and violent leaders of the AFUP, such as Father Coughlin and Dr. Colescott, to endorse Kuhn as their stooge. The latter criticized Long many times on its internal policies, judging them too soft, and often expressed [[National-Populism|national-populist]] views, such as the creation of an American Youth who would give to children a patriotic and military education.

Some newspapersmen, after Long's designation as the America First Union Party candidate for the [[1936 presidential election]], have seen Fritz Kuhn as a possible vice-presidential nominee, if Long wanted to form a very authoritarian ticket. Some members of the AUS claimed that Kuhn was precisely sharing such expectations. But Article 2 of the US Constitution, which defines the conditions to become a candidate to the Presidence, kills all these rumours: in fact, Kuhn could only be endorsed in 1942, after fourteen years of permanent residence in the United States...If he was a natural-born citizen. Thus, except for a violent power takeover or a new Amendment, Kuhn will never be able to enter the White House, by any legal means. In addition, many prominent AUS politicians see Kuhn as nothing less than a German spy.
