Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist
DENVER, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- A man who wants to form an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission in Denver says he would like to meet with Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
Jeff Peckman is pushing a ballot initiative that would create the panel. He has offered to give the Illinois senator a briefing on space aliens, The Rocky Mountain News reported Friday.
"I can get him information that I believe is better than what he would get as president," Peckman said. He added that a meeting with Obama is unlikely. Obama will be in Denver to accept the Democratic presidential nomination next week.
"I don't expect anybody to let me meet him in person," Peckman said.
In addition to a meeting with Obama, he is also asking the Democratic Party to include a plank in their platform that includes holding "open, secrecy-free hearings on the UFO/extraterrestrial presence on and around Earth."
