Manipulative Personality...developed or pre requisite?

Dealing With Manipulative People

I was reading the above link about manipulative personalities, and I believe it is safe to say that they come hand in hand with alcoholics. I am just curious as to whether it is a trait that they gradually develop because of the addiction, or are the majority of these people manipulative long before an addiction ever comes into play. I know the answers probably won't be so black and white, and everyone is different, but I just wonder if a lot of our A's would be the same way, just as manipulative, even without the alcohol?
