Aside from Jesus of Nazareth, the person I would most like to meet is Winston Churchill. He was, in my opinion, the greatest man of the 20th century. The trouble is at which point in his life would I have liked to have met him--but perhaps mostly I would have liked to have met him as a young man--after school, before his first round of warfare.
Conversely, I would have like to have met him during the wilderness years accidentally while he was painting or laying bricks.

Thomas Jefferson - the main was a scientist, a farmer who experimented in recycling waste to improve food growth.
He invented so many different things to improve his life. Need to visit his home Monticello in Virginia. He was creative and quite a gourmet...enjoyed good foods, wine and talking and learning and sharing. He was a man before his time. Not too many like him in today's world.

William Wallace, seems he is written about and portrayed as a real! hero. I'd like to see a man that could be, warrior a leader a king? a scholar? a lover/ and legend....Scotland has a colorful past, that seems to have shaped most the U.K. today...and he is quiet a note worthy subject.

Jesus Christ. There aren't many other people who have had such a dramatic impact on human history - and still have that impact - as he did. His life changed the course of history then and it continues to do so today.

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt
She was a very strong willed lady. Very out spoken and brave. If she was alive today she would make a great President!

Benjamin Franklin. I know he had a nauseating social/personal life but the man was a genius and a polymath. I would want to know him because of his intelligence.

Nixon, for just one. I would like to know why we was willing to give up his presidency over a cover up for a seemingly minor thing as the Watergate break-in?
