For me, it would easily be Derek Jeter, Ray Lewis, and Michael Jordan. Jeter for Leadership, Lewis for Motivation, and Michael for Perseverance.

Gary Sinise, Chuck Norris, Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Gary Sinise is one of the most active and outspoken supporters of our vets and troops overseas. Additionally, you gotta love the tunes from he and the Lt. Dan Band.
Jennifer Love Hewitt - another great supporter of troops and vets. A good friend was evaced back from Iraq to Walter Reed and couldn't stop talking and smiling after receiving a visit from her (she regularly visits wounded warriors and has become a spokesperson for the VA, DAV and VFW)
Chuck Norris - You don't need a reason to have dinner with Chuck Norris. He's Chuck Norris!

Sir, respectfully I say none. Celebrities are, for the most part, nothing more than overpaid crybabies. Are there some good people out there, whether actors, musicians, artists, athletes? Yes, but personally I refuse to elevate them to a status above what they are.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a Celebrity is anyone that is famous. I agree there are plenty of famous people that don't deserve what they have, but there are of course plenty that do. This discussion is more so what famous people would you chose from. For example: Colin Powell, Bill Gates, and J.K. Rowling are all celebrities that are not under any of the categories you mentioned.
There is nothing wrong having respect for the work of an athlete, actor, or musician, despite how much they get paid. We all took different paths in life, and it just so happens they get paid more for what they do. If I wanted it that bad, then I would go after it as well. Since I chose to be part of the greatest Army in the world, we have different tasks and goals to fulfill. Granted we are certainly much more respected by the civilian people for what we do than other celebrities, however, there is also a lot of respect for other celebrities. This kind of respect is different for each one. I could never write a book, or hit a game winning shot in a championship game with the whole world watching, or even be as politically involved with our nation as other celebrities. Thus I have great respect for all of them, which is different than putting them on a higher pedestal.

Bill Cosby- loved watching him growing up, I enjoy listening to his comedy now and an extremely smart man.
Pres. G.W. Bush- I'm a huge fan of how he has continued to work with our wounded vets.
Dwayne Johnson--just because I have a crush.

I think sitting with Bill Cosby would definitely be a great experience. I could watch his shows all day!
