Hillary Clinton speculated that Earth may have already been visited by aliens and vowed to look into Area 51, a classified Nevada base long rumored to be a home for extraterrestrial life.
“I think we may have been [visited already],” Clinton told the Conway Daily Sun, a local New Hampshire paper, after an editorial board meeting last week. “We don’t know for sure.”
Clinton said her campaign chairman, John Podesta, is an alien enthusiast.
“He has made me personally pledge we are going to get the information out,” Clinton said of Podesta. “One way or another. Maybe we could have, like, a task force to go to Area 51.”
Clinton was asked about life outside of Earth because her husband had remarked to late-night television host Jimmy Kimmel that aliens could have already visited humans given the sheer volume of planets in the galaxy.
