Although many U.S. presidential candidates are discussing "aliens," the Daily Mail has a story about a candidate talking about aliens from potentially much farther away. According to the Daily Mail, Hillary Clinton has made a campaign promise to 'get to the bottom' of Area 51 if she should be elected President of the United States of America. Specifically, Clinton said that she would reveal the UFO truth:
"one way or another. Maybe we could have, like, a task force to go to Area 51."
"I think we may have been [visited already]. We don't know for sure."
The Daily Mail story is based on the report of an interview with the candidate published in the Conway Daily Sun newspaper of Conway, New Hampshire.
Do the contributors here think that extraterrestrials are a promising and important campaign topic? Or is there skepticism?

That entire article is a non-story. It makes no conclusions at all. That you find it convincing is just odd. In character for a credulous boob though.
Meanwhile the snopes article quotes the origin of the smear contradicting himself on this very topic:
1998: "If I had the power to fire her, I would have fired her,"
2008: "I terminated her, along with some other staff members who were — we no longer needed, and advised her that I would not — could not recommend her for any further positions."
It even cites his own book published in 1995 where he says she remained on the watergate investigation right up until nixon resigned.
