“(I saw) a flying object that was unidentified. But I have never thought that it was from outer space. (…) As far as covering up possible flights from distant satellites or distant heavenly bodies, I don’t believe in that, and there’s no evidence that it was ever covered up. Or extraterrestrial people coming to earth, I don’t think that’s ever happened.” -Jimmy Carter

Now move on, people.
EDIT: I think I misunderstood him regarding a cover up. I guess he didn’t talk about a government cover up, but covering up the distance between a distant planet and earth? Anyway it doesn’t change much since he didn’t believe in aliens so there was nothing to cover up.
