Good list. Add Hannah Arendt.
I met Schlafly at the Louisiana State Capitol.
I don’t much respect Ayn Rand. But would still want to sit and chat.

Similarly, I’d love to chat with Lucille Ball. Also brilliant.

Candace Owens
Margaret Thatcher
Kay Bailey Hutchison
Mia Hamm
Sandra Day O’Connor
Amy Barrett
