A lot of dead white European guys here, Neocon. Only one woman, NOT ONE Asian (unless you count Ataturk), NOT ONE Latin American, NOT ONE African...

And the Americans and the Brits account for over half of your nominees.

Somehow, I don't think an educated person from Japan, or India, or China, or Kenya, would go along with such a list. In fact, I submit he may never have even heard of such luminaries as G. K. Chesterton, let alone Rogers & Hammerstein or (who's that again?)Barry Gordy.

No Gandhi, no Mandela, no Mao or Deng or Sun-Yat-Sen...??!!
