ballot initiative
Only days after the draft text of the ballot initiative was submitted to the City of Denver, it attracted widespread media coverage.
From May 1-8, media coverage was in forty-two U.S. states and nine foreign countries.
There was radio, TV and print news, and thirteen live or taped radio and TV interviews, including a live talk show in South Africa.
This exploding interest can be credited in large part to thousands of UFO sightings, and years of research and education by dedicated

These champions include: scientists,
"abductees", government officials, NASA astronauts and personnel, authors, and advocates of government disclosure about evidence of extraterrestrial beings and their vehicles.

2. Enter the words "Extraterrestrial Denver" or "Jeff Peckman" or "Vatican Extraterrestrial" (without quotation marks) in the search field.

But "a spoonful of humor helps the medicine of truth go down". So we don't mind people poking fun at the ballot initiative. For them it's sort of a defense mechanism to protect themselves from some potentially shocking and life-changing information.
