What historical figure do you want to be friends with?

If you could go back in time and make friends with a historical figure, who would you choose?

I want to be friends with Marie Antoinette when she was around the same age as me. She was very cool and nice lived in a big palace which she would let me sleep over in if we were friends. Also she was very rich so she would buy me lots of things. The only bad thing is she ends up being killed.

I'd probably befriend Thomas Edison, because he kept trying until he succeeded in his inventions.

George Washington. He was the Chuck Norris of colonial America, and actually rather profound politically as well. :D
