Q: Which dictators wife amassed a record collection of shoes

A: Imelda Marcos

Wouldn't the correct answer be Ferdinand Marcos?

Also, a little leeway with the spelling of "Caruso"? "Carusso" looks pretty ignorant in hindsight, but is it a stretch to accept that?

Hi 'Don'..... It is one of those interesting ways of presenting a question, If the question was "Which dictators son amassed a collection of motor bikes" what would the answer be? I guess it depends how you see the question. I'll make the answer fit both ways just to be sporting.
