The power of questions-
In a receiving line on July 28, MUFON State Section Director Charles A. Huffer asked a question of candidate George W. Bush relating to the UFO question. It took place on camera. Within hours it was tearing through the Internet. There was some confusion, as to be expected. In a note sent to Paradigm Research Group, Charles A. Huffer clarified the encounter excerpted here:
Huffer: Half the public believes that they are real. Would you finally tell us what the hell is going on?
Bush: Sure, I will.
Huffer: (Gesturing toward Cheney) This man knows. He was Secretary of Defense.
Bush: And was a great one.
Later Huffer encountered Bush again in the hall. Bush recognized Huffer and, as recalled approximately by Huffer, unsolicited said:
Bush: It will be the first thing he (pointing to Cheney) will do. He'll get right on it.
Huffer: Will, will you really?
Bush: Yes Sir.
One question slipped into a receiving line creates a minor furor. On January 26, X-PPAC kicked off "Campaign 2000 - Get Out the Questions."

Crafted questions to be downloaded an asked at campaign forums of national candidates. Since that time, there have been questions, but more are needed - particularly of the presidential candidates. The experience of Charles Huffer makes it clear just how powerful a question can be. There's a first amendment, they have to campaign, we get to ask them anything we want - what could be simpler. A half dozen more questions asked of Bush and Gore on camera could flip media switches nationwide. There is still time. Questions are also located at other websites, including:
(Citizens Against UFO Secrecy) [www.caus.org and
(The Enterprise Mission) www.enterprisemission.com].*
