Once upon a time in the long ago there was a hero named Will Rogers. The one whose epitaph reads "I never met a man I didn't like". Rare?

He could gently rib all the people and they loved him for it. The world loved him and he was a very powerful voice in politics for many years. How is it possible for one man to be so loved by so many? How is it possible for one man to make no enemies and to like everyone he ever met? An anomaly. A singularity. A once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. Do you know anyone like Will? Did they break the mold when he was made? A Cherokee Indian by birth. He traveled a lot and did a lot and cared a lot and spoke a lot. We need another Will. Think it's possible?
