If you could meet anyone in history, who would it be and why?

Paul of Tarsus. Greatest apologist for Jesus and author of much of the New Testament. Learn from his faith and wisdom.

George Washington. I would like to thank him.

Alexander The great so we could talk military strategy and about his going to the Temple in Jerusalem and the high priest showing in the bible where he was mentioned in prophesy though not by name. See if he believed that.

Without a second breath, Jesus, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. The One whose power is made perfect in our weakness. We plant a seed, fertilize it, water it, and give it sunlight...but only He can make it grow. We go to the doctor who has the most up-to-date technology, the best college education, surgical skills beyond description, but Jesus is the only One who heals, even calling Himself the Great Physician. He gives hope where there is suffering and depression, the will to overcome one's feelings when they change like the wind---one moment here, the next gone. Jesus knows what is inside a man's heart and knows that his outward appearance cannot make him who he is. Greater still, he transforms a man's heart of darkness into light so that he can enter heaven. And he is the person who says, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life," who says to "Speak the truth in love," who tells us not to merely say the right things, but do them! One day, I will meet him.

I'd like to meet Andrew Jackson. He was truly an American bad-ass! He was orphaned during the revolution, raised by his uncles, was a self-taught frontier lawyer, and served in both houses of congress before becoming the 7th president of the United States.
Although he was the "father of the democratic party", he did not hold the values of the current party and was actually involved in several duels, one of which he nearly died in. His VP was famous for having a duel on the White House lawn, so they were no opponents of gun ownership.
I also served on the submarine that was named after him, during the cold war. "One man with courage is a majority", was the boats motto. #41forFreedom.

“There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is having lots to do and not doing it.”
― Andrew Jackson

I would like to meet Gen. Colin Powell specifically because he was successful in areas of life not only important to me, but also to God, my country, and society as a whole. As a Christian he not only believed in spiritual principles that guide not only soldiers, sailors, ands airmen, but also their families. Another great man said there are no atheists in foxholes. General Esienhower was correct and Gen
Powell lived it.We need our families to support because we don't soldier alone. We need healthy families
As a African American soldier he was presented with all the challenges of not only being a soldier, but also being Afro-American which was definitely a challenge when he entered the
U,S. Army. And he was successful in all areas of life. He had soldiers who came to him with problems and questions he had to adjudicate from many different perspectives that other leaders were not presented with: primarily because he was a military leader and /afro-America. And while doing this very successfully, he rose to the top.
Ultimately he accomplished every mission he received professionally and with dignity. He was, and will always be in my mind, the epitome of a professional soldier. Thank you for the example you gave us. Hoorah !.

The person I would like to meet would be Colin Powell.
He was an outstanding military person and an all around upstanding person in society.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Se always valued and uplifted other people. Se said no one could make you feel bad without your permission.

I would like to meet Thomas Jefferson because he did so much in forming our American Constitution. I would ask him to relate how he was instrumental in writing the beloved document. His answers to the considerations and construction would help our government in determining the original meaning.

I'd like to meet two individuals. Mother Teresa and Gandhi.
The positivity and peace these two individuals offered in their teaching is what we need today. With continued charity and focused services to each other would be beneficial to any one person or group, but humanity as a whole. We all are starving for knowledge and peace., but must find ways to use it for all.
