Chapter 13_2

“enough of the wisdom crap, out with what you think!” paul

“i would deal with them accordingly and with proper evidences, even if the case might take time to resolve.” percy

“fair enough.” paul

“and I feel sorry for anyone who would be working under you president paul, specially the american people.” percy

“what is it now?” paul

“just like your case with jake, natasha, the earthquake, the power grids, and the satellite fall. All of those cases were caused only because of your ignorance.” percy

“no they arent! They are all caused by jake burns! And the case with natasha is caused by my generals and scientists!” paul

“already blaming others arent we? When all the evidence will point towards you.” percy

“how could you know, huh?!” paul

“i don’t, but the people already knows. you don’t own everything president paul.” percy

“enough! Its already time for the next topic.” barry

They then behave after that.

"Alright, to the next question, which side are you on? In regards with the future. To build or not to build?" barry

“for me, im with building everything! We have the power, we are america, thus we have the responsibility to get ahead of everyone else!” paul
”for me, im with both. As a nation responsible for all of the world, we also need to be responsible for making stuff. Besides, we all have scientists have we not?” percy

“hah! what a flimsy decision. How can you be certain if that device is even safe or not if its not made right?” paul

“true, but safety is better than ignorance itself!” percy

“but ignorance is bliss right? So which is better than to not be ignorant about it! Our forefathers have always went to venture towards distant lands with the use of their guts!” paul

“i know, but whats the use of professionals if you don’t heed their advice! They have the math! The evidence to ascertain if using such a device is good or not!” percy
”if our enemies make it first and we don’t have the knowledge or the experience for such devices? What would we do? Its like being ignorant of it all!” paul
”you do have a point, but there are also simulators to simulate the outcomes right?” percy

“actual data versus calculated data, which one would you prefer?” paul

“i would go for the calculated data, since its always 99 percent accurate most of the time.” percy

“but you wont know unless you really make actual data right? So calculated data is useless!” paul

“no! Its better to have data than none at all. Which is why I preferred calculated data, that way, its more safer.” percy

“enough, its time.” barry

“but I havent even finished grilling him yet.” paul said with a smirk

"Alright, to the next question, how would you deal with climate change as a leader?" barry

“Climate change? There is no climate change under my management.” paul

“maybe you just neglected all of what your scientists are saying?” percy

“what?! and you have a better idea then on how to address climate change? If there might be any.” paul

“yes, by following the advice of scientists, I will make sure to lead the people into doing more for climate change. After all, pride is nothing compared to doing the right thing.” percy

“there it is, jake burns again. don’t you have anything original for us?” paul said like a bully

“no, only because im only speaking the truth.” percy

“hahh.. you know, people like you are what I call, the ignorant.” paul

“it will depend on how you interpret ignorant president paul.” percy

"Alright, to the next question, should there be a control with genetically modifying oneself?" barry

“for me, it will depend on the person, but im not allowing any alterations in this country on my watch. I will also even push these ideals towards other countries, making genetic alteration illegal.” paul

“and what will happen to those who will modify themselves? Those people are harmless unless if they come from the underworld!” percy

“true, but to make a more safer world, I will abolish all forms of alterations to the human body. As it what you want, and its what I know what god wants.” paul

“hahh.. I have already said to you that change is coming, and you cant stop it. Though for me, I will pursue alterations as a normal thing. It is not against human ethics if it wont kill anyone right?” percy

“suit yourself percy, though I will stay with what I believe in.” paul

"Alright, to the next question, is marijuana good or bad?” barry

“for me, its good. Everyone is already doing it, heck, I will even do it too when opportunity arises!” paul

“based on what happened to jake burns, I think that marijuana should be regulated. Its neither good or bad, for like the tool it is, it depends on the user on how the tool is used.” percy said as barry agrees

“anyways, this wont change the fact on how flimsy you really are percy. You are not fit to be president.” paul said, pointing at percy

“lets see who the people will favor the most, whether it be the ignorant or the wise.” percy

“hah! You make me laugh!--” paul

Barry cuts them off, “and this concludes the debate! Please vote wisely when the time comes!” barry
