CNN asked people to think about:
Who would you clone, and why?
Let's push that a bit further. Consider some of the real limitations of current cloning:
1. You get a baby, not the adult you are cloning
2. That baby has to grow up, and may not get the environmental training, influences, etc. that generated the adult
3. (add to the list your favorite points...)
Anyway, pick a clone (your favorite bultibillionare? The Sainted One from your favorite religious slice? A Random Person selected by the television networks? Why not?).
Consider their life and times. Or maybe just the life and times of the cloning group?
And write about it. What happens? Why? What do they learn? What does the rest of humanity learn?
What do you learn, in writing this?
