President Lincoln, he was trying to unite the US and end the fighting between ourselves, I would like to ask him what he thinks of todays government, and his opinion on how to fix some of todays problems, I know that he would use basic logic and ways used back then, if he doesn't die again after seen what's going on today, I know one of the things he might say is that we have made our world too complicated.

I would like to meet Harriet Tubman! Mrs. Tubman was one of the most courageous individuals I’ve studied. Mrs. Tubman was a great activist for enslaved people. She was resilient on completing many missions to rescue people that were forced into slavery. The Underground Railroad was one of her main attributes however it was not her only known task. Mrs. Tubman was also an armed scout and spy for the Union Army. Im sure she was a walking book of knowledge and I could have learned a lot from such a wonderful individual. Ignorance isn’t a crime the crime is the lack of intellectual curiosity!

Ronald Reagan. He was the best president that we have had, along with his knowledge and wit would be an honor to sit and talk with him.

General Eisenhower
His leadership blows me away because he led people to meet their objectives assigned to them.

I would want to meet James Earl Ray, the assassin of Dr Martin Luther King, in order to ask him two questions. First, how did he know which rooming house to go to which overlooked the motel where Dr King was staying. And, secondly, I would ask him how he came into possession of the stolen Canadian passport which allowed him to flee to England where he was apprehended. Likewise, who told the FBI that he had traveled under the false name and where did a small town criminal like himself acquire the funds to travel to Memphis for the kill and then to escape to England.
I would love to meet Abraham Lincoln. Having grown up in Illinois, we took field trips to Springfield to visit his home and tomb. I've read many books about him and am currently reading one now. I've also visited the Springfild museum dedicated to him. I'd like to settle the controversy about his stance on racism. I believe he was an abolitionist and would like to confirm it with him in person.

John Howland, one of the original Pilgrims to arrive in Plymouth in 1620. John Howland is a very distant relative and has a story that rivals those dreamed up by Hollywood screen writers. Originally
he came as a manservant to Governor John Carver. Howland's adventure started before he even stepped foot on land when he was swept overboard and then miraculously saved, then by virtue of surviving the first winter he eventually became an elder of the settlement. I would like to hear about his life and tell him of the subsequent impact he has had on our country.
