When Will Potential 2016 Candidates Discuss the ‘Extraterrestrial Issue’?
Former Obama aide and well-known X-Files obsessive John Podesta tweeted this month that his "biggest failure of 2014" was "Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files."
Many assume that Podesta will soon sign up for the still-hypothetical Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, which means that the UFO lobby might just endorse Clinton for a second time if decides to run.
Stephen Bassett, head of the Paradigm Research Group (which runs a blog about presidential UFO news and hosted an off-brand hearing for ex-members of Congress on government transparency in matters extraterrestrial), told the Huffington Post in 2007 that Hillary Clinton "knows this issue is not trivial." Nearly eight years later, Bassett is still trying to access any government documents on UFOs, and still hoping that Clinton will reach out to constituents like him.

Well, you'll have to settle for the unclassified stuff for now:

Replace Skylon's already impressive SABRE rocket engine with spooky UFO/sci-fi propulsion and throw in a warp drive, and many spacefaring fantasies could be satisfied.
