ETs for Hillary: Why UFO Activists Are Excited About Another Clinton Presidency

[William Seger]

Stephen Bassett is ready for Hillary. Bassett, Capitol Hill's only registered UFO lobbyist, anticipates that another Clinton presidency will offer another shot at what's long been the Holy Grail for extraterrestrial enthusiasts: full disclosure of what the US government really knows about aliens. "This is the most important issue in the world," he says.

His enthusiasm is shared by Michael Salla, an academic turned UFO researcher who maintains that aliens have been secretly involved in American politics since the Cold War. He thinks a Clinton presidency would be a good thing for the UFO community. "I think Hillary would play a positive role in getting this information out," he says. "I think that Hillary definitely is much more the pro-disclosure candidate, where as someone like Jeb Bush is basically status quo."

The UFO activists' hopes for Hillary are pinned on the assumption she believes in their cause—despite having never spoken publicly about it. In particular, they are encouraged that John Podesta, Bill Clinton's former chief of staff, will likely chair Clinton's campaign and would likely serve in another Clinton White House. As a self-described "curious skeptic," Podesta has openly called for greater government transparency on UFO-related matters. In his forward to UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record, a 2011 book by journalist Leslie Kean, he wrote, "It's time to find out what the truth really is that's out there. The American people—and people around the world—want to know, and they can handle the truth."

1. There's something going on

I'm watching Podesta.

If the aliens (who are here and have been for thousands of years) want Clinton, they will have her. Their lack of communication with earthlings will end when THEY decide. Their "hidden" state is protected because they don't want to be known yet, and there is so much we don't know. We know they appear, but don't know why and may never know. There are more than one kind, and they don't like each other... One author of UFO books tell us to substitute "space" for heaven when reading the bible...

2. Well, I'm Facebook friends with

a Draconian, so some aliens are willing to communicate with earthlings...at least one of them is with me.

I'll ask it if it's a Clinton supporter.

I am not as gullible as I seem. I believe a lot of stuff because I usually tell the truth unless it's to spare someone's feelings.

So, you are in contact with an alien in Facebook. Now, I belong to Facebook and Twitter, but don't use them because they are too complicated, not being a good password rememberer. And that goofy Facebook would come on without my asking when I went to Dictionary.com and they opened a window for me to post a message. Why would I want to post looking up a word in Dictionary? I complained to Dictionary, and Facebook leaves me alone when I go there. If you mentioned the word "alien" somewhere in Facebook, I bet somebody was there to reach you, just as long as you post. They like when you post.

I don't think you have to reach Draconia to contact an alien. I think they are here, have been, and the time to announce, is approaching. I'm a Zechariah Sitchin fan, tho not necessarily a Clinton fan. Ask your friend about her, by all means. I wouldn't call him "it," he/she might take it the wrong way. Aliens are very interested in sex, so History tell me.

One thing I wonder about is how History and History2 channels get away with telling us that the origin of life starts with aliens from places other than Draconia. Those channels hint that Zues, Isis, Poseiden, Aries, Mars, and all other Greek, Roman and Egyptian, Aztec, Sumerian, and native American gods were real. If this is not the absolute truth, how come nobody has called them out on this stuff? Why don't they put this stuff in Sci Fiction channel?

Let me know what your new friend has to say abou Hillary. I know people who have seen him flying around in a saucer=shaped thing and would like to meet him. Oh well, History says they're coming back soon.

Thanks for your post, honest.

4. Hi, fadedrose,

I know from corresponding with “its” other Fb friends that my Draconian friend is really an earthling with a big imagination, and to go with it, a deep longing to escape the mundaneness of his real life. I wish he were what he wants so much to be, because he’d be happy and we earthlings could take him seriously and learn cool things from him.

Scientists and serious academics regard Sitchin as either an out-and-out fraud, a nutcase, or both. His work is based on misinterpretations of ancient texts (as you surely know, he insists there’s a planet – he calls it Niburu or something like that – which he says the ancient Sumerians wrote about, a planet whose inhabitants once lived in Sumeria and were regarded as gods), and add to the criticism he’s received from real experts on the subject of Sumeria, real scientists have stated that many if not most of Sitchin’s astronomical and other scientific “facts” are bogus.

Does intelligent life exist on other planets? No one knows, yet the Internet is crawling with websites listing various “known” ET species and describing them in detail. Here’s one:

Sorry to have to come right out and say it, but this kind of wackiness is too far out there to even qualify as pseudoscience. It’s batshit crazy.

5. Reply got lost in the etherworld or whatever you call it

Explained here:

It was a list of other batshit crazy people and some links..

Will get back to it again but it takes time...

Actually, I could argue both sides of the ET issue having read a lot about the pros and the cons...
