Andrew Jackson so he can fix this country and take some names. Maybe add a vassal state or two.

Thomas Jefferson

I would take him to DC and have him kick every politician's ass.

Nikola Tesla , I think he would be amazed at how much his work has advanced the world and at how little credit he gets for it.

^^ this one. So I guess he gets 10 years? 5 from you and 5 from me? Do the years come off my life? Can we exchange how many years? What if you only have 2 years left?

Nikola Tesla was my first answer too.

Barring that, probably one of the founding fathers for the lulz that would ensue between him and the GOP. Jefferson, Washington, or Franklin probably.

Franklin was a putz who happened into history.

I would not torture Tesla with the mess we have made of our power grid. If I thought for two seconds the government would ask him to help, I'd be all for it.

That was pretty high on my list, but then I was thinking, what would he really be able to accomplish? All his efforts would be subverted by the liars and cowards over there. It would just be 2 voices(him and Ron Paul) amongst many.

I'd have to give it a lot of thought. There's a bunch of good contenders, but 5 years isn't much time.

Phil Hartman or Ernest Hemingway. I'd be happy with either one.

OK.

You bring him, I'll bring Thomas Aquinas.

Those two could slap and/or talk some sense into the nation.

Einstein, no question about it. Getting to see pics from Hubble, all the exoplanets being discovered by the Kepler telescope, CERN, etc. He would be a kid in a candy store.
