Depending on the results of the 2020 election for U.S. President, just how will the results impact that quest? Will another term for President Trump, or a victory by former Vice President Biden make a difference? Bassett is the executive director of Paradigm Research Group, founded in 1996, to end what he describes as a government imposed embargo on the truth behind the UFO phenomenon. He has spoken to audiences around the world about what he feels are the implications of disclosure by world governments of an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
