SUMMARY: President Joe Biden's debate performance has led some Democrats to question his presence on the November ballot. Despite some concerns, there is no indication Biden plans to end his campaign, and replacing him would be challenging without his consent. Primary delegates are obligated to support Biden unless he withdraws. Even Vice President Kamala Harris cannot automatically replace him without a party vote. Should Biden exit, multiple contenders, including Harris and other prominent Democrats, could vie for the nomination. Legal challenges are expected but likely won't succeed, as courts typically avoid interfering in primary processes governed by party rules.

SUMMARY: The Mississippi Petrified Forest, located in Flora near Jackson, is a unique national forest in the southeastern U.S., presenting a natural history of Mississippi. Discovered in the mid-1800s, it opened to the public in 1963 under Bob and Shirl Schabilion. Formed around 36 million years ago through natural processes like flooding and glacial movements, the petrified logs are remnants of ancient trees, once over 100 feet tall. Visitors can explore the nature trail, view exhibits in the Earth Science Museum, try gem mining, or camp at the site. The forest also features a new pavilion for events and a gift shop with souvenirs.
