The friendship of former U.S. president Bill Clinton and his predecessor, George H.W. Bush, is an interesting one and
was fast to become a favorite story for the media.  A staunch Republican who lost his Presidential reelection bid to a
Democrat former governor of the state of Arkansas who furiously dug away at the former’s perceived broken promise
of “no new taxes” with comments and slogans like “it’s the economy, stupid” would probably be the last pair to
develop a strong kinship.

Both former Presidents have an interesting history with UFO’s.  It was strongly rumored that then-President Jimmy
Carter, who made a public vow during his 1976 Presidential campaign to release all information he could on the
subject of UFO’s, asked his Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (DCI), George H.W. Bush, to be “briefed in” to
all intelligence regarding UFO’s and aliens.  Bush promptly responded that Carter had no need-to-know, and curiosity
on the part of the President did not constitute need-to-know.  Bush reportedly stood his ground even through the
threat of being replaced as DCI.  Carter’s desire to be briefed in grew from his own experiences as a witness to a UFO
in Plains, Georgia while its governor.  He also took the unique step of officially filing a sighting report.

President Bill Clinton brought the media spotlight full bore onto his desire to know.  
During a public appearance in Belfast, Northern Ireland in November 1995, Clinton said with is usual amiable grin, “I
got a letter from 13-year-old Ryan from Belfast. Now, Ryan, if you're out in the crowd tonight, here's the answer to
your question. No, as far as I know, an alien spacecraft did not crash in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. And, Ryan, if
the United States Air Force did recover alien bodies, they didn't tell me about it, either, and I want to know”.

Could Clinton’s desire to know be deeper than his amiable grin betrayed?  Could that desire to know be the impetus
behind his growing friendship with Bush, the former DCI reputed to be a key figure in the present relationship with
extraterrestrials?

When a son aspires to the same job once held by his father, it is generally expected that the father will impart all the
accumulated wisdoms and secrets about that job to his son, in the hopes that the son will excel and outshine the
father.  All good fathers desire for the son to be more than they were.  It is reasonable to assume that the elder
Bush briefed his son, soon to be U.S. President George W. Bush, on the current alien situation.

During the 2007-2008 Stephenville, Texas UFO flap, investigators with the Mutual UFO Network determined that at
least one UFO deviated a short distance to the small town of Crawford, Texas, based on official Federal Aviation
Administration radar transcripts obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.

It is also reasonable to assume that there was more to the deviation than readily meets the eye.  A connection was
made between the deviation and the fact that the then-current President owned and resided in a small ranch in
Crawford, and preferred to vacation there instead of to the official Presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland.

What has not been thoroughly investigated are the reasons surrounding the extraterrestrial craft’s deviation to the
President’s Crawford ranch.  Was the motivation of such importance that a physical meeting had to occur?  What is
so important that an extraterrestrial representative would call so many other UFO’s into the public view to distract
from a craft cruising into the FAA’s no-fly zone around the President’s ranch?  Why was this craft not challenged
when other UFO’s were challenged by F-16’s from the U.S. Air Force’s 301st Fighter Wing, based at nearby Naval Air
Station Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base?

In June 2009, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush appeared together at a Q&A fundraiser, where their new friendship was
moved into the media spotlight.  

Through a gullible public’s “ooh’s” and “ahh’s”, no one thought to look deeper into the relationship between Clinton
and the younger Bush, who was obviously his father’s successor in more than just the American Presidency,
specifically the likely head of any group tasked with researching and managing the alien threat to Earth - today’s
Majestic-12.

This author unwaveringly believes that foreign terroristic goals were the motivation for the 9/11 attacks.  It is
noteworthy, though, that a war pervasive enough to distract the American public and an often self-absorbed
Congress would be just the thing to hide the American (and possibly the Earth’s as a whole) reaction or response to
an alien threat.  It is also attention-catching that the Bush administration, which this author respects for a myriad of
reasons, would react so drastically to the computer-hacking case involving a British citizen diagnosed with Asperger’s
Syndrome, a form of autism.

Gary McKinnon was arrested when it was determined that he had hacked into numerous American Department of
Defense mainframes and NASA databases.  McKinnon was reported to have seen names of U.S. Navy ships not listed
on any official fleet manifest that seemed to be listed as space-bound, in orbit around the Earth.  McKinnon also
located names, ranks, and inter-fleet transfer reports of “non-terrestrial officers”.  Would the threat of a 70 year
prison sentence be an appropriate response to a developmentally challenged individual’s intrusion into government
databases if McKinnon’s allegations were untrue or the imaginations of a challenged individual in need to assistance?

Today, McKinnon’s fate is still up in the air, as is the truth behind “non-terrestrial officers” and space-bound Navy
ships.  Equally mysterious is the Bush’ and Bill Clinton’s involvement with the UFO mystery.
