heh you need to read the Faq.
it answers your Questions.

In my opinion Gentoo is the best one to start with.
But well read the faq and you find out..

We can't tell you which distro is best for you. Everyone has his/her own tastes likes/dislikes. You can do anything or install any package in any distro. I would suggest you to try as many as you can and decide yourself.
Check this Poll on Fav Desktop Distro. Check the link in my signature too.
