It’s safe to say, Charles Manson never won any popularity contests. In fact, the notorious cult leader ranks right up there with guys named Hitler and Stalin when it comes to likability. Except when it came to his own followers. His band of disciples would literally do anything for the unemployed ex-con who barely stood five feet tall.
