If you could meet a former President, who would it be and what would you ask him?
John F. Kennedy and I'd ask him if this is where he saw America going and how he felt about the way the troops were being used.Â

I have two, first would be Lincoln and I would ask him how he feels about the first African American President, and then I would ask him for a boxing (sparing) round. The second one would be Teddy Roosevelt, and I would simply ask to go on a safari hunt with him

SGT White - I think Lincoln was known for his wrestling skills, not boxing:

Was Abraham Lincoln Really a Wrestler?
President Abraham Lincoln was a very good wrestler as a youth and his wrestling exploits were used during his presidential campaign in 1860 and became part of the Lincoln legend.

SGT Keen, I read the same question and with all due respect I did not find it to be incendiary in tone at all. It would be an interesting question to see how POTUS Barack Obama would be viewed by Mr. Lincoln. He seems to be the top choice of former presidents dead or alive who people are wanting to ask questions of.

SFC Anabel Cepero, I'll go with Thomas Jefferson. President John F. Kennedy, in remarks at a White House dinner honoring Nobel Prize winners of the Western Hemisphere on April 29, 1962, stated, "I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."

I would like to ask a question of Millard Fillmore. Not because I find him particularly interesting, but because I imagine everyone else will be asking all the cool presidents questions and I wouldn't want him to feel left out.

George Washington. I don't know whether I'd ask him anything, but I'd sure love to listen to some of his stories.
