Well since you're looking to expand you're boarders with Genghis, I got Vlad Dracul http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_tepes to deter you.

I'm assuming you mean Vlad the Impaler/Dracula, right? Apparently Vlad Dracul was his father.

You're right - that's what I get for posting when I'm half asleep.

The (current) Dalai Lama
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Dalai_Lama

I was sad that Buddha was taken, as was a possible backup in Confucius, so I'll take the current Dalai Lama. He seems to be a cool enough individual who can enlighten me with some eastern philosophy and either argue with or become good buddies with Jesus.

By the way, I'm mostly using the default picture from wikipedia for the draft lists on the first page. If you'd like a different picture let me know. Also, I try to list people by the names you refer to them as, but sometimes I make little changes for clarity, but you're free to give me exactly how you want the name to be shown.

Socrates
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socrates

Wanted an ancient Greek philosopher, Aristotle was already taken, and I only really know of one other guy (who I didn't want). So here we go.

Well if you don't want him, I'll take Plato: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plato

Keep in mind, most of what we know of Socrates we know from Plato ;)
