A new survey finds that 80 million Americans, or 36 percent of the population, believe UFOs are real. One in 10 respondents say they have personally witnessed an alien spaceship. And if aliens were to invade the country sometime in the next four years, 65 percent of survey respondents said President Obama would be better suited for handling the invasion than Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. More surprisingly, the new NatGeo survey found that a whopping 79 percent of people think the government has kept information about UFOs a secret from the public, and more than half (55 percent) believe there are real-life "Men in Black"-style agents who threaten people who spot UFOs.
Do you believe in aliens, have you ever had an encounter?

If you mean by alien is an intelligent life forms beside human, then yes i believe, but i never seen it directly with my eyes. I think the survey is funny, because i think i never read something like this before.

I was looking for something different and came across this so I thought it might make for an interesting discussion.

that was a cool survey.. haha..
it is most likely that lots of americans would say they believe in ufo's because most of the ufo sightings happened in the US and nearby countries.
i really do believe that the government already have proofs of it, but they hide it for public safety.

yes, I definitly believe in the presence of UFO's. now whether that said UFO is coming from space or is of our own making, such as a projected hologram, that is the question. We know that UFO's exist, but we do not yet know just who on earth or space is creating them. I am a firm believer in life in other planets as well. Perhaps not the planets that surround us, but yes, life is out there. There are billions of stars and who knows how many can support planets and create life on those planets like our own sun does for us here. As for presidents? Yes, I believe that Obama would be a very good president in regards to disclosure or an alien visitation. If you can you MUST check out the 1984 miniseries, "V". This is not the one that recently aired, this is the first one, it was really, really good. It was probably the best space invasion film ever created. I think I have watched that miniseries over 10 times already. Much truth in that one. If you do check it out, make sure that you do not watch the television show, but instead find the original tv miniseries that was on ABC, I believe. As for men in black, I actually did see a black unmarked helicopter shadowing me one day, it came down SO low that I could get a good look at it. it was completely black and had absolutely NO markings whatsoever, and it was very 'stealth like' in appearance. Truly an interesting site. Very modern and aerodynamic looking helicopter. What it was doing lowering itself and hovering over me, I've no idea. lol. Last time I looked I was not some little green dude from Mars. :D
