After reading a bit closer on this wiki I just now discovered it becomes pretty clear that it was written by a leftist socialist libturd but it'll give you some very basic background but don't take it all to heart as much of the info provided is either jaded, biased, slanted or more of the same old outright fake information aka lies the MSM loves to sling around about those they vehemently disagree with. Must have been written by the editorial board editor at the NY Times from the looks of it.
