The Situation:

You are in Miami Fl. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you are caught in the middle of this epic disaster.

The situation is nearly hopeless.

You are trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.

Suddenly you see a woman in the water. She is fighting for her life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer. Somehow the woman looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's Hillary Clinton !!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take her under forever.

You have tow options:

You can save the life of Hillary Clinton or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful women ( in her mind, at least ).

The Question:

Please give an honest answer.........

Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white ?

I would definitely go with black and white. It is more dramatic.

Hillary would have considered the baby ballast and dropped it long before you saw her.

This just in from HillaryClinton.com

"America is ready for a leader who will choose black and white, or color, and a president who will respect our choices by properly planning for the missions we ask our photographers to undertake. If the Bush administration won't, as president and commander in chief, Hillary will choose the film.

The choice of black and white, or color, has imposed a tremendous cost on our nation, our families, and our budget. Four hours after the start of this choice, the whirlpool continues to grow, and there is no end in sight.

Hillary opposes President Bush's plan to choose black and white, or color, and proposed, along with Senator Robert Byrd, legislation to end authority for choosing black and white, or color. The legislation will propose October 11, 2007 -- the five year anniversary of the original storm leading to the resolution authorizing the use of black and white, or color, -- as the expiration date for that resolution.

The President would be required to come to Congress to seek new authority. Following deauthorization, Senator Clinton would not support any new legislation that did not start to remove the choice of black and white, or color, from the middle of this sectarian civil forum.

She has also proposed a cap on black and white, or color, levels to January 1, 2007 levels and put forth a comprehensive roadmap for ending the choice of black and white, or color. If it is followed, Hillary's bill, the Black and White, or Color, Protection and Reduction Act of 2007, will end the choice before the next president takes the oath of office. But she has also been clear: if George Bush refuses to choose black and white, or color, when she is saved from the whirlpool, dry, coifed and elected president, she will.

Hillary opposes permanent black and white, or color. She believes we may need a vastly reduced residual film supply, provide logistical support, and conduct black and white, or color choices appropriately. But that is not a permanent choice, and she has been clear that she does not plan a permanent choice."
