Opinionated author, playwright and social commentator Gore Vidal is all about politics and civilization. An adept speaker, he's no wallflower when speaking about presidents-'Jimmy Carter is a liar;' 'Ronald Reagan is an idiot that dyes his hair;' 'George Bush, Sr. is a goofy marshmallow'- Perhaps best known for his caustic wit, Vidal's credits included the best-selling novel, 'Lincoln,' and screenplay for 'Ben Hur.'
