You have a 10 hour flight, which US president are you sitting next to?

Ronald Regan ,LOL
Got to go with Washington. The best ever.
Joe Biden so I could get some sleep, but then again the smell might keep me awake.
None of them. I’ll take Ben Franklin
There are only 3 choices. 2 of them couldn’t even begin to fathom what’s happening today in the US.
Coolidge, I guess.
He’d keep quiet and wouldn’t bother me.
I was just about to post the very same thing! :-D
Nixon. We could talk football. Hunter S Thompson, who despised Nixon, said that was the car trip he had with Nixon was the most fun he ever had talking sports.
A non answer.
I’d rather sit by the lavatories, facing aft.
Silent Cal, not even a question.
LOL! That was my pick too.

The only reason I'd pick him as he'd be asleep the entire 10 hours.
Bill Clinton. I’d be happy to join him on one of his humanitarian missions.
If I have 10 hours and each president has a seat available next to him I would move around and visit several.
My first pick would be Washington. I’d be curious about his assessment of the current status of the world (and air flight) without the benefit of knowing the history of everything that has happened since 1797 to now.
One of the single seats at the back.
Since we cannot choose our seating companion, we will probably be seated next to Biden. At least we shall be able to get some sleep!
Otherwise, I choose Washington! But Kennedy would be more closely aligned with my period of history, and would be interesting to converse with.
Bill Clinton. Heck, when he whipped out his cellphone and started showing me his received nudes he’d have my attention.
