I wouldn't mind talking to Bill Clinton and George Bush. It might help me understand how we got to where we are politically.

But I suppose what I'd really like is to talk to my mother and really get past the facade she wears and understand her motivations and desires. As long as I've known her she's been role playing as the mother in an ideal 1950s family despite never having an ideal 1950s family. I'd like to understand her better.
