a moral dilemma

i received this today, and boy was i stumped!

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving
an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally. No one else
will know, so you won't be fooling anyone but yourself if you give
anything but a truthful answer.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you
will have to make a decision.

Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please read
slowly and thoughtfully, giving due consideration to each line.

Here's the situation:

You are in Florida; Miami to be specific. 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're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly
hopeless. You're 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 man floundering in the water. He is fighting for his
life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer...
somehow the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's
George W. Bush, President of the United States!!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to
take him under... forever. You have two options - you can save
the life of G.W. Bush, or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning
photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful men.


So here's the question, and please give an honest answer:



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