The (first) presidential debate

On June 27 President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, at that time the candidates in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, debated immigration, health care, crime, the economy and international relations, while the country debated the pros and cons of gerontocracy. These are real issues, but the candidates and the country skipped the most important issues as if they did not exist. These issues include:

1. The coming replacement of the current human being with a new human being created by biological engineering and AI.

2. An imminent world war sparked not only, or even primarily by tensions in the Middle East, or between Ukraine and Russia, or China and Taiwan, or any of the many other "hot spots" around the world, but by a manipulated effort to use war as a cover for the elimination of obsolete human civilization, replacing it with a genetically engineered, AI mediated new civilization.

There is much criticism of the two candidates' performances in the debate, but in the big picture it doesn't matter what they said or who won [Update, 7/21/24: ...or whether one is shot at or one replaced], we are headed in the same direction. Our two-party system with its definitions of key issues is a relic, reflective of a world about to vanish. We need something updated and more forceful, whether a new party or, as this blog suggests (see Party or Foundation below) another sort of influential group that can gain the trust of our threatened species and mediate the changes coming.
