Take Me to Your Leader
Extraterrestrial spacecraft have entered Earth's orbit. The age-old question, "Are we alone?", has been definitively answered – we are not alone.
The moment of first contact with an alien intelligence is upon us. Their motives are completely unknown to us. Everything about the visitors is a mystery.
Then they reach out to us with a simple request:
Take me to your leader.
But who should we direct them to?
Is it really the elected - or unelected - government officials of one's own home country? Or should other elements of society be involved in this first stage of a new galactic era?
Who is going to do the best job?
What qualifications or expertise should they have?
Who can best represent human interests to an alien intelligence?
