This is totally bogus according to Snopes, but it's still funny.

Many will recall  that on July 8, 1947, witnesses claim an unidentified object with five aliens aboard crashed on a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico.

This is a well-known incident that many say has long  been covered up by the US Air Force and the federal  government.

However, you may NOT know that in  the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic day, Albert Arnold Gore, Jr.; Hillary Rodham; John F. Kerry; William Jefferson Clinton; Howard Dean; Nancy Pelosi; Dianne Feinstein; Charles E. Schumer; and Barbara Boxer were born.

 

That piece of information clears up a  lot of  things.

Cheesy

I don't think it can possibly be true that Hillary Rodham Clinton was born in March of 1948.

During a speech in New Zealand, she informed an adoring audience that her parents named her after New Zealand's native son Sir Edmund Hillary, in honor of his being the first man to climb Mount Everest in May of 1953.

Unless aliens wait until sometime after their offspring's fifth birthday to name them . . .
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Nice sentiment, but it's been busted for a week now. Snopes.

I didn't have any illusions of it being real. That would have been an insane coincidence. I just thought it was funny.
