You probably believe the bunkers have something to do with continuity of government in the case of a world war. LOL, how gullible you are. The reality is that those bunkers act as secret clone farms, kept far from prying eyes. Each TPTB member's bunker houses at least three dozen healthy, well-fed, genetically identical clones of themselves, raised in captivity from birth.

Every time Cheney's heart starts to fail again, he has the healthiest clone in the farm slaughtered, and the corpse's heart is then transplanted into his own body. All DNA matches perfectly: Zero chance of organ rejection, zero chance of incompatibility, and zero chance of failure.

Liver, kidney, or pancreas failing? Have lung cancer? Not a problem for these guys. They each have an endless supply of perfect replacement organs.

You don't hear about it much, but complete spinal cord and brain-swapping surgery is also completely achievable, and has been performed successfully in experiments on animals many times in the past century. The animal always survives as long as the brain is kept on ice and the surgery is completed in less than 90 minutes. Granted, the animal still dies within a week, but that is just because it's a completely different animal's body. That isn't a problem for Cheney and Kissinger, where their clone's host body is genetically identical to them.

Once these guys get old enough that their entire body has fallen apart beyond the capacity for repair via these patch jobs, they'll simply have their brain and spinal cord directly transplanted into an 18-year-old clone's body whose brain was removed. They'll start over with a completely new identity. Nobody would suspect that a guy who looks vaguely similar to a teenaged Dick Cheney is actually, in fact, Dick Cheney.
