President Harry Truman, if I could go back in time and be him, I would stop the first ever atom bomb from exploding.

What is your favorite style of mustache and why?
Sorry, I'm not a big fan of mustaches. I think they are really time-consuming to maintain.

If you could be fluent in any foreign language that you're not already fluent in, which one would it be and why?
Sanskrit, because that's what my ancestors spoke and once I'm dead and in heaven, I need some means to communicate with their souls.
