--I'm interested in inviting a woman to the table that wielded great power to get their perspective on how the world works. I want to know how they became so influential and how they think they used their influence in the right and wrong way. In fact I would like to have a table that is half women half men because it would be unfair to this gathering of the minds to only represent half the population, but since I do admire the first 4 men in a unique way it prevents me from doing this.
