A Republican
candidate for congress in Florida claims she was abducted by aliens
as a child. Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera is a candidate for Florida's
27th district which includes much of Miami. Her comments,
which recently resurfaced, originally appeared in a 2009 taped
interview with the Spanish language station America TeVe. Since then
multiple other videos have appeared where she goes into greater
detail regarding her other worldly experiences.
“I went in,” Rodriguez Aguilera said
in the interview. “There were some round seats that were there, and
some quartz rocks that controlled the ship – not like airplanes.”
Rodriguez Aguilera claims that the
abductions started when she was seven years old, and that she is
still contact with the aliens who abducted her via telepathic
communication. The aliens she describes are similar to the so called 'Nordic' race, often described by alleged abductees. Purported witnesses to sightings of these beings
claim that they are tall, blonde and similar to humans in most respects.
In her story Rodriguez Aguilera claims that the aliens who abducted
her told her that a cave located in Malta contained upwards of 30,000
non-human skulls in addition to claims about the Earth's “energy
center”
A statement released by her campaign
draws a connection between her beliefs and former Presidents Jimmy
Carter and Ronald Reagan both of whom claimed to have viewed UFOs at
different times in their lives. Neither of whom claimed to have seen, nor communicated with, actual extraterrestrials however.
Unsubstantiated claims regarding the paranormal are not uncommon from minor political candidates however Rodriguez Aguilera is no outsider or perennial candidate. Prior to the surfacing of her claims, she was considered a legitimate contender, with strong family ties to the larger Republican Party.
