Shirley MacLaine: Extraterrestrials and JFK

so the these extraterrestrials which you call star beings are concerned about how we are destroying our own planet absolutely why would they care because it has a it has an effect on the entire cosmos if this planet is destroyed the atmosphere feels it and the outer ionosphere fears feels it etc and besides they care about us and they don't want to see in some cases what they consider their children to be self-destructive you say that the American government is much less likely to acknowledge alien visitors than the governments of other countries well apparently there's been the the countries that have released their star visitor files are Brazil France by the way when they released him in France the number of inquiries shut down the net systems it was quite extraordinary no I can't remember all the countries that have but they've been I think venez away maybe Argentina I know I talked to president Menem in Argentina about this and he had his military investigating he knew that it was real Carter and I have talked about this he had his own encounter you know he read read wrote about it so I have um all the astronauts so many astronauts have talked about it and hope people like Kennedy the US Air Force assures me that UFOs posed no threat to national security I like that approach he knew they were there he wanted to know what they were he was not afraid Reagan had his encounters I mean I could quote you lots of people but the important thing is that I think we're in a real crisis well you say although you don't support the election of George Bush you say in the book it was meant to happen so you're also a fatalist very good question yeah not a fatalist but we did after all elect him in enough numbers that he's the president so I think he's the president for our learning experience and I think the learning experience revolves around the need to understand taking responsibility in a democracy this is like when they say about an alcoholic you had to hit rock powder right we have to hit rock bottom in our opinion of our president before we start to take responsibility in our own power back yeah exactly I'm not sure there are that every conservative in America would see it that way oh I'm sure not but let me let me hear what they like about it
