I would choose:
Margaret Cho, Korean-American comedian
(for laughs and current political input)
Anjolina Jolie (because her interview on "In the Actor's Studio" made me understand that there were other people "like me" out there, with firey natures, who are often misunderstood, and who are so driven that if they aren't given productive opportunities will harm themselves, but who can make a real difference)
Jesus Christ (I'd like to clear up some misunderstandings and get his perspective on Gnostic gospels and divinity)
Alice Paul (women's suffragist, who would have a lot to say on gender and feminism, I'm sure)
Cleopatra (I'd love to learn about the politics of Egypt/Rome, her negotiating skills, her lovers, etc.)
Jim Henson (a great promoter of peace and multi-culturalism, as well as an artist and educator, I admire his work and legacy)
The Buddha (I'd like to learn more from the source!)
____
We'd talk current and ancient politics, religion, social change
