I'd be sorely tempted to bring Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington back, but I'm really not sure how well I'd get on with him, from most accounts he seems quite prickly.
The man could probably sort out a ton of problems though.
In a similar vein, Napoleon Bonaparte, I'd love to see how that man's mind operated.
Going further back, William Marshall, the greatest Knight of his era.

Something tells me he'd be sad, but not for the (debatable) reasons you listed. He'd be more like "Prostitution is illegal now? DAMN IT! I'm going back to France!"Mick Golden Blood said:
I'm pretty sure he'd be more upset about the lack of prostitutes than anything. Dude got around.Mick Golden Blood said:
Of course, if you bring back Boudica, she'd likely just kill you in the face before you could blink, so there's that.Boudica said:Either the Buddha or Boudica
Feminism up in yo face!
Though I will admit, I'd love to see if she really is as bad-ass as history indicates.
Jesus. Then when someone on the internet says something about religion being evil I have Jesus walk up behind him and tap him on the shoulder to tell him why he's wrong. Best pranks ever!
That, or the Romans were a bit flabbergasted by the wave of dongs running towards them.Boudica said:She wasn't really that badass. Basically, her tribe was very close allies with Rome, but Rome decided they wanted her land after her husband died. She said no. They flogged her and rapped both her virgin daughters. In anger, she rallied the surrounding tribes, all of whom were sick of being pushed around by Rome, having their land given away and the such. They stormed three Roman cities in Britain and burned them to the ground, including the capital, killing everyone in them. Flustered by the sudden attack, Rome scrambled to get troops to the area. One half legion was beaten into retreating, another thought they were too far outnumbered and refused to go to combat. The third used cunning tactics to lure Boudica and her two hundred thousand plus army into a small battlefield. The brave Celts rushed forward and straight into a volley of spears, wiping out thousands. The tried to retreat but were trapped. Most of the army was slaughtered and Boudica killed herself to save being taken alive.frizzlebyte said:Of course, if you bring back Boudica, she'd likely just kill you in the face before you could blink, so there's that.Boudica said:Either the Buddha or Boudica

She wasn't a great tactician and the army under her command had no formal training and fought mostly naked. She simply had powerful charisma and exceptional bravery and conviction.
If I could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the person was the who they claimed to be to the media George Washington would be a solid bet as he could correct a lot of misconceptions about what the founding fathers wanted. Also he predated political parties which is an extra plus.
I can think of 3 people suitable
Lu Bu
I would show him a dynasty warriors game,see his reaction,and then tell him he can do whatever the hell he wants,as long as it doesn't involve murdering me or my family
Hitler
I would tell him that i am the nazi scientist who just brought him back,and that the nazis now rule the world,and are eagerly awaiting his return,but that i don't have any means of communicating with anything farther than 20 meters,so he has to go out there and declare his return himself
Nicola Tesla
Dude was smart,i would just tell him to continue his experiments as he sees fit.

George Washington to let him see what the country he helped to crate has turned into and to hear his opinion about it.
