Americans may be split on which presidential candidate can repair the economic climate, but President Barack Obama trounces Mitt Romney in one out-of-this-planet scenario — an alien invasion.
The majority of Americans, almost 65 percent, say Obama is much better suited than Romney to handle an out-of-this world alien invasion, according to a new National Geographic Channel poll, USA Today reports.
The survey, conducted to promote “Chasing UFOs,” a Tv series premiering Friday, also found that practically eight in 10 individuals, 79 percent, believe the government has kept info about UFOs a secret from the public. In addition, 55 percent believe agents related to these played by Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones in the film “Men in Black” — their mission is to hide data about extraterrestrial beings — really exist.
Another recent poll suggests that 77 percent of Americans think there’s evidence that aliens have already visited Earth.
