I would like to meet Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, and Malcolm X for the dead category.
Martin because of the historical factors of how he led blacks etc...
Malcolm X because as history shows he had a bit too much power.
Abraham Lincoln because of the Declaration of Independence.
From the alive category, I think I would like to meet Barack Obama and Halle Berry.
Barack Obama because a lot of people say I look like him.
Halle because I always had a crush on her as a young boy, I don't anymore now that I am married, but I have always like her acting as well.
What about you?
Who is the past or present would you like to meet in person?

I would want to meet Abraham Lincoln too, I read a lot about the man and am fascinated by him. I would also like to meet John Lennon, because he and the rest of his group helped change the music scene. I also would like to meet John F. Kennedy, he was assassinated when I was in 6th grade and I really admired the man. I also would love to meet John Paul II, he was such a sweet loving man who was loved by millions. (I still can't believe that Ronald Regan fell asleep during their meeting! Wow, I would have been so excited I would have been peeing myself!) I also agree that I would love to meet Barack Obama. I would so love to sit with him for a couple of hours and present the under dog side of life...and I would love to be able to wave a wand and have him see the current conditions in the United States, so he could get the TOTAL PICTURE about not only the working poor, but the poor. My Mom and I drove through rural Mississippi and the conditions there were a real eye opener! I so wanted to be able to wave a wand and provide the people with housing without holes in their roofs and the sides of the building, proper beds and linens, plenty of food and good clothing that protects them from the elements. That man should see both sides of our lives!
I think the person I would most like to see, who is past, is my Mom. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't miss her with all my heart. I was with her when she passed away, and I was able to tell her how much I love her, but still I miss the fun we used to have. She was so great!

All of those people are really great choices, and some folks I'd actually like to meet as well, especially Kennedy.
Funny you mentioned what you did regarding "BO." I wont' say what I'd say as I wouldn't want to offend you. Let's just keep him in our Prayers and that God is able to use him to turn this economy around in such a way that everyone is benefited.

I'd to meet Pope John Paul II if I had the chance. He's one of the most beloved Popes throughout history

The entity I would like to meet doesn't exist yet. I would like to see it. It won't know about me but I will know about it.

I don't know why.... but anyway, you shouldn't add comments like that to happily married men.

Jesus. All the rest will be there... :) There are several "live" people I would like to meet, but I can't think of any that can follow after my original response.
He is all knowing afterall, why would I want to meet others? I'm thinking of only quality, not just 'meeting' someone. If it were that category, it would be Brad Pitt! ;)

I personally would like to meet my mother's parents. It is simply because i have never meet them till they passed. My brother did, at our school holiday..But i couldn't go that time. That really breaks my heart cos i just know them from stories. I didn't even know how they look like..
From the celebrity, i would like to meet Lucas Grabeel (LOL)..He's just so cute in all Disney Channel's Movies..Very bright skin and good looking face, amazing voice, amazing dances..He's just GREAT..!
