    Hmm, I'm wondering "why?" on the first two..
    Blind to this impending fate
    We let the world carry our weight
    It's back breaks with every mile
    But we all live in denial

        No its not. They are some of the most famous people in the history of the world, no matter the reasons. A chance to get to know them a little bit would be an unbelievable opportunity.

        I'll second Martin Luther King. I would not choose an athlete. I would want to talk to someone who had an impact on history and also is extremely intelligent yet still down to earth.

          Not at all.

          I'd love to sit down with Hitler and just see what went through his mind. He was a genius, in his own way, and it'd be something to just see what he had to say. I don't see anything wrong with that.

          As for my list:

          Ben Franklin - So many inventions, I'd love to see how he came across them all.
          Tom Brady - Just to shake his hand and see what went through his head on those final game winning drives.
          Frank Sinatra - Ask him about the day and age he lived in, and about his music.

            I don't know, I just see it as the equivalent of sitting down and meeting with Timothy McVeigh. I don't see why you would want to meet someone who killed many (and in Hitler's case, a ridiculous amount) of innocent adults and children for no reason whatsoever.

              McVeigh blew up a building, Hitler took over nearly all of Europe and tried to wipe out an entire race. I think its fair to want to discuss with him his motives, find out just what he really felt about life, and talk to a person thats mark in history will be remembered well after McVeighs. I really don't see the problem with it.

                I guess I see your point. I'd like to read Mein Kampf because of what's in the book, but if he was actually alive, I don't know if I could sit down and talk with the guy.

                      Only reason I'd want to have lunch with Osama is so I could stab him in the eye with a fork.

                      Hitler I can see why, he was a genius...but, Osama?

                        1) Billy Beane. His knowlege of baseball is so great and to hear how he can manage to put a winning team on the field the way he does would be very interesting.

                        2) Babe Ruth. One of the greatest, if not the greatest, baseball player of all-time. I'd like to hear what he believed made him so good. Plus, I'd ask him if he really did call his shot against the Cubs.

                              I'd go with:

                              Micheal Jackson-the man may be a nut job but who would'nt be if you had ppl worshiping your every step since you were 8. I would'nt want to talk about his child fettish, simply conversate with him about his music and his accomplishments.
