he was a grade school mate of mine :-) and later in life not a very handsome man due to some grotesque disease.
Unfortunate man.
Okey dokey, as Hannibal lechter would say, I have one.
I am a deceased American male

he died in the 20th century
he was not an author
he was involved in politcs, to call him a politician may be misleading, but he was definately involved in politics

let me clarify that last statement:he introduced something that was devised by someone in the government who worked for him.
It is something that we all most likey come into contact with on an almost everyday basis.
