No they are not, but they are historical figures. Do you think that either of the Mayor Daley's of Chicago were not historical figures when they were in power. Old man Daley was the second most powerful man in the U.S. when J.F.K. was President. More so than LBJ. History is always being written. Some times it takes till later to know and sometimes it doesn't.

Yeah Mckenna's intellect is, to me, probably the deepest, most creative and most insightful I've ever discovered. I'll actually take him for my answer.
