the government will only disclose if they think it would mean some kind of $$$ or if the aliens ask it to

so guys ... wake up, I think it wont happen ... but you never know ... hope? maybe ...

It's much less laughable than it was. It used to be quite a bit worse. The advent of easily-obtainable video has produced enough footage (even if much of it is mistaken identity), that I think a lot more of mainstream America believes such things are possible. That, and media such as movie and television shows, where alien visitation and cooperation seems a lot less like fantasy than it previously did.

Sure, there are sites where the concentration of people who believe anything that glows and is in the sky is alien is higher, and some of those folks really push the fringe of "loopy," but there are also quite a few people who do believe, but are of stable mind.

In the past, it used to be ANY report of UFO activity was prefaced by much smirking by the anchors. This is no longer the case.

However, I don't think a disclosure commerical during the SB is the best time slot to do it...

The best time in fact, would probably be during a Presidential race. Maybe in the middle of a much televised debate.

The issue is perception.

The politikals do it all the time. They, in fact. ignore truth regularly in favor of the perception regardless of actual value. We are sold these politicians who come out, kiss our children and make empty promises and we, by god, flock to them.

The whole thing depends on intent. If the UFO community truly wants to unite the global public in a consensus that UFO matters are not BS and deserve more official attention, it can be done.

Stick to the facts... use good, existing and undebunkable historical events. Those UFOs in Washington in '52 were more than temperature inversions because there are confirmed radar reports and visual contacts from the pilots who were sent up to catch them.

This is a battle for the hearts and minds and can be won just as easily as it has been lost for the last... what? 70 years?

posting a video clip on yutube or google isnt going to any impact.

You want attention, have a professional ad agency script a real 30 second commercial. And then have it air during a premiere show like Dancing with the Stars on a major network like ABC.

Then I would recommend airing the commercial on sunday on FOX during a football game.

Finally, air the commercial on FOX News during the O'reilly Factor show.

This would reach a massive audience and most importantly, it would reach a massive mainstream group that knows nothing of this subject matter

The problem would be getting these major networks to sell you the air time. I honestly cant see ABC approving a 30 second clip of people standing in front of a camera accusing the goverment of covering up alien contact and supressing technologies recovered from crashed ufos that could end all human suffering.

And in the end would this lead to disclosure ? Hard to say honestly but my guess is no. the will of a majority of people is ignored all the time. Look at the bank bailout, the masses stood up and said we dont want this. the elite did it anyway. The masses are saying they dont want obamacare either and guess what, its gonna pass no matter how many tea party protesters shout against it.

I would still love to see this happen though. Id be willing to donate some cash or even my expertise (BA in Advertising)

oh and most importantly, this commercial would need a highly respected person to give the topic some credibility.

Someone like Charlie Sheen wouldnt work. Nor would an 80 yr old astronaut.

you would need someone huge, like former President Jimmy Carter to come on and say "I saw a UFO. I tried to get disclosure but cia chief and former president Bush sr told me to go to hell"

toss in a few hollywood types and a sports personality like Troy Aikman and now you would have an impact.

this would create a momentum and water cooler buzz that it might lead to disclosure.

i would say this was a good idea BUT you really think the PTB would EVER let a commercial like that be aired? HAHAHA NEVER!

So, first off that was a very decent start, and definitely emphasized the mood and direction such a commercial should go ReDoubt... Good job.

One thing that this kind of reminds me of, is just how strange it is that more people with the capabilities to accomplish messages like this, don't.

You know, why is Charlie Sheen "rare" in his viewpoints and direct presentation? I find it strange that we aren't ALWAYS seeing commercials that wealthy people make to push some topic or whatever.
I mean, it really goes to show how used up, bought out, and fake our athletes, performers, celebrities, politicians even wealthy business owners are. Seriously, nobody stands for anything? It's just weird man... You'd think we could call up a handful of random celebs or something and eventually we could find one who's excited about ANY truth movement.

I dunno, kinda irrelevant I guess.... I just don't see why it's so hard to find investors in this kind of message... and why it isn't more common across the board with all kinds of topics from medical marijuana, politics, "truth", religeon, anything controversial like sex and choice laws.... weird man...

Good work though guys... You're really moving this forward in a good way...

Again, you want your commercial to have any traction once it airs in prime spots? Well then, you better understand how CAPITALISM works first. The commercials go nowhere and do nothing unless they get enough public attention to cause the mainstream media to spend money to investigate and air stories about it. There is a pyramid of money related decisions that would go into that, and if there isn't enough real public interest in it then they would drop it like a hot potato.

Hell, put a commercial on now and the only news coverage you will get will be the typical newscaster laughing during a very quick mention of it...it goes dead after that.

Now, why would the general public laugh at a subject you guys take so seriously? Gee, I have no idea...oh wait, yes I do...just read the title alone to have the threads on this very forum, if that doesn't make you roll your eyes realize that this is probably the best board out there right now, and it goes far downhill from here in many other places online.

Again, clean this subject up, take the stage away from the ignorant fools who have been representing you THEN launch your PR campaign.
