Never underestimate the close mindedness of the political leaders on Earth. Suppose you were Bill Clinton (God forbid Ron Reagan) and someone came to you and said, "Boss, we have to name a delegate to the GMH." He says, "What the heck is that?" Guy says, "Well... see it's this place in netherland and you can go there only if you remote view." Boss says, "what the hell is remote view?"
Well you get the idea. Course he was too busy with a young lady at the time, who DID volunteer to go by the way. :-)
