If you could spend one day with someone famous, past or present, who would it be and why?

I know a lot of people would say they would choose Jesus, and that is a pretty awesome person to glean from. But I am curious who aside from Him would you like to spend a day with? Why do you want to spend a day with them? I wish I had an answer for who mine would be but I would have to really think on that for awhile.

To tell the truth, I think it would be neat to spend a day with Aristotle, learn some of his wisdom.

I would love to spend the day with Warren Buffet. I'd love to learn some of his habits and financial tricks that made him wealthy. I'd love to also spend the day with former British Prime Minister (if she were still alive) Margaret Thatcher. There was a reason she was called the Iron Lady.

I know this doesn't sound lavish, but one person I'd love to meet would be my grandfather. I was born three years to the day after he died, so I never got the chance to meet him. I'd love to get to know him and hear his stories from his time in the Marines. There are countless others I could think of, but that's the one with a direct bloodline I'd love to meet.

Hard to narrow down to just one. Part of me is inclined to say Elvis, as he's my all-time favourite singer (not to mention the King of Rock 'n Roll), part of me wants to go with one of my military heroes like Gen. Patton or Richard "Demo Dick" Maricnko (the Rogue Warrior and founding C.O of SEAL Team 6), part of me is inclined toward a favourite POTUS like Ronald Reagan, and yet another part of me is inclinded toward a fave actor like Sean Connery. Decisions, decisions......

Besides, Jesus, I'd like to have known Theodore Roosevelt. He was man of strength, not Just physical, but with high integrity. And he might show me some of his hunting 'honey pots'.

I would have loved to meet with Abraham Lincoln and see his views on love of country, patriotism and leadership
