Nereid: ""Superior = best adapted to surviving and producing viable offspring". As it will be less than 3 generations before all current and future anti-biotics become essentially ineffective at treating bacterial infections, genetic predisposition of surviving multiple, recurring bacterial infetions is THE best way to measure superiority. In this respect, sub-Saharan Africans (and their descendants throughout the world) are unquestionably the 'superior' group of homo sapiens. Discuss."

Choice of just one mode of leaving descendants among many is unscientific; just the kind of cherry picking you criticize in the supporters of IQ differences. The only way to see what populations are best at leaving descendents is to wait and see.
Precisely.

Which species of http://www.zsl.org/filelibrary/pdf/ie.pdf is (was) "genetically superior", when faced with Euglandina rosea?

Which group of http://www.wha.org.au/pages/resear02.html are "genetically superior", seeing as how Sarcoptic mange is making such an impact?

Are Siberian tigers "genetically superior" to Sumatran ones?

Which species of dinosaur were "genetically superior" when along came the KT asteroid?

Who can say what new diseases, predators, or totally left field threats to our species' existence our grandchildren will face?

In the US, there isn't all that much racial mixing. People still are much more likely to marry members of their own race or even ethnic group. So despite the great diversity in origins and genes, we don't get as much "hybridization" as you might think.
Anyway I don't think you can say anyone has higher quality genes than anyone else. It all depends on the situation. Right now the Chinese are doing the best in terms of population size.
