I just...the title of this and the...? Huh!? *blinks sleepily* So, yes, I had to answer this.
Anyway, Queen Elizabeth I, definitely. I have no idea what I'd ask - I think it would depend on the time of her reign in which I was dropped. I probably wouldn't ask a question, to be honest. There's nothing I can think of that I'd want to know that could be the answer to a simple question. I'd like to observe her, work with her, learn from her strength. And I doubt "Can I follow you around like a lost puppy for a lengthy period of time?" would go over well.
"Don't be frightened. What's your name? Favorite color? Song. Movie. Don't be nervous." No, wait, this is not Velvet Goldmine and I'm not going to be shagging her on a rooftop (rooftop shagging was not as common in the Elizabethan era?). Also, I know her name and there weren't any movies back then, so I'd have to change that to "play."
Ha! Maybe I'd go back and ask her, "If you could travel back in time and ask any deceased political figure (famous or infamous) a single question, who would you choose, and what would you ask?"
There. That. ;)
