Podesta, Open Government, and the Assassination of President Kennedy

If I put you over there in justice I want to you to find the answer to two questions for me: One, who killed JFK? And two, are there UFOs?   Deputy Attorney General Webster Hubbell speaking in his book “Friends in High Places” about a request from President Clinton.   John Podesta has always been a vocal proponent of open government. This had led his to take such stands in public as the release of any withheld government UFO files, because it is a good idea and because “it’s the law.” Clinton and his Chief of Staff John Podesta In a 1998 lecture to the 4 th Annual Intelligence Committee Information and Classification  Management Conference [1] Podesta talked about the role of openness of information in government. “The task in which you are engaged,” said Podesta, “is at the core of what George Washington called America's ‘great experiment.’ Our nation was founded on a principle that was revolutionary then, and too often seems revolutionary today: that government d

Most candidates would probably describe involvement with the issue as political suicide. All one has to do is look back to the 1996 election where Jack Mabardy ran for President on a UFO platform to see what the issue can do to the candidate’s vote count. In the 1996 Presidential election campaign Mabardy, a Massachusetts cab driver was a write-in candidate on the Republican ticket. He urged the US government to
