I actually have 2, the first would be President Nixon; I would ask him how he was able to open up and maintain the great connections he had with what was then our current enemies and calm many things down that were taking place across the globe at the time during the Cold War. And 2nd, President Reagan, how does he view what has transpired with the country during the millennium, especially the last 5 years of politics within the legislative and executive branches, and with his sense of direction what he would do to try and fix it among both parties?
I think both of those minds would be a great help to our nation at the current status and point we are at.
SFC Baber,
I like your thinking. I definitely agree with you. Too bad we can't get real answers and sit and pick at their brains!
Sir,
Thats a great question, I'm sure he'd have some wise words to that. On top of that question I'd want to ask him how he feels about the movie Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, just out of curiosity.
1SG Haro, I'd be interested in knowing how he feels about SS being used as a Federal cash pot to pay down national debts.
James Madison. I would like to hear him relate his thoughts on his input into the U.S. Constitution and the Federalist Papers and what his perspective would be with regards to the political climate and division in today's world.
I keep hearing people say and seeing people post on social media with inference to what the founding fathers would be saying or doing right now. I'm the kind of person that likes to get it from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
An impressive and thought-provoking question!
George Washington said at his Farewell Address: However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they
are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which
cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power
of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying
afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."
I'd like to ask him what a citizen Army is bound to do in such situations.

Sir,
That would be a great topic of discussion, I wonder what he would have answered with. It would be great to sit down with our former leaders and hear their wise words.
