Known for her grasp of policy, Mrs. Clinton has spoken at length in her presidential campaign on topics as diverse as Alzheimer’s research and military tensions in the South China Sea. But it is her unusual knowledge about extraterrestrials that has struck a small but committed cohort of voters.

Mrs. Clinton has vowed that barring any threats to national security, she would open up government files on the subject, a shift from President Obama, who typically dismisses the topic as a joke. Her position has elated U.F.O. enthusiasts, who have declared Mrs. Clinton the first “E.T. candidate.”

“Hillary has embraced this issue with an absolutely unprecedented level of interest in American politics,” said Joseph G. Buchman, who has spent decades calling for government transparency about extraterrestrials.

Mrs. Clinton, a cautious candidate who often bemoans being the subject of Republican conspiracy theories, has shown surprising ease plunging into the discussion of the possibility of extraterrestrial beings.

"Hey guys, never mind my numerous scandals, my shady foundation, my money from Wall Street and other special interests, my obvious and disingenuous shift to the left to appeal to Bernie voters, my flip flops on the key stone pipeline and TPP, my disastrous voting record on Iraq and trade agreements which hurt the middle-class, just look at muh aliens!"

be careful, the shills around here love TPP

she'll investigate Area 51

What is there to investigate? It's a military base which is testing experimental aircraft which means people are going to see strange flying object's that they can't identify.
