The White House will be allegedly obligated to respond if 17,000 more signatures are collected.
The petition is aimed at asking the government to formally acknowledge an extraterrestrial presence and to release all relevant files on the subject to the public domain. The "We the People" initiative promises to respond should more than 25,000 signatures be received on any given matter, petition organiser Stephen Bassett hopes to go viral in an attempt to get as much support as possible.
More than 7,500 people have signed a petition asking the White House to 'formally acknowledge an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race and immediately release into the public domain all files from all agencies and military services relevant to this phenomenon. '

The only thing I can see as a major problem with this is...'if' the president and his men are really really aware of ET.. and IF it is deemed as a military secret or national security issue, then nothing will be revealed by a petition. If previous "mass" anti-war rallies and the current Wall St protests don't change a thing, why will a web based collection of email signatories make a difference? Even though I 'really' do want disclosure

I dont think the President would even know if his goverment were involved. Leaders come and go so often they wouldnt want all these ex-leaders walking around and knowing, obviously controlled from a backroom elite and the president is a puppet if theres any truth in it. so the word from the President is that there is nothing to report as far as he knows there is no thruth in ET contact etc.

Even if you don't have to believe in the "secret government" and so on, all these government departments, Defense, State Dept and so on, - all have their own agenda which they've probably ... [More]

Sorry for being a bit off topic, but is there someone out there, (like James Randi, offering a million dollars to anyone who can prove anything paranormal is true) offering a reward for anyone who can prove ET exists/visits Earth? So many times during these UM discussions, I think to myself, 'All it takes is ONE person who is allowed onto a 'ship', to take pictures/video with their phone and to be allowed a few items to show the rest of the world'..... *sighs*

Mr Bassett good wok but even you collect the rest of these signatures I don't believe the White House will disclose any UFO documents to the public,however I do believe some day IT's will show up in public to leave proof of alien life, they been here here already is just matter of time is right.

Aliens are like gods. They presented themselves to people 1000s of years ago with amazing regularity and indulged the local populace with all manner of great and wondrous deeds. The loved proving how advanced they were and how powerful or intelligent. They were well known by the kings and leaders, every member of the population and most could recognize these great and powerfuls by sight. Then poof. They disappear and the only appearances are to provide rectal exams to individuals that probably needed a colonoscopy anyway, or some other stupid stunt in which they make certain they can only be "...
