What is the relationship between the President and UFO ?

I spent hours researching all the online data of the Jackie Gleason and Richard Nixon story. As best as I can tell, it was a complex mis-remembrance by Jackie's wife of Jackie golfing with Gerald Ford, not Richard Nixon, during a very turbulent time in their marriage. That was conflated with the many times Jackie exaggerated his friendship with Nixon, and his wild tales of flying saucers, a subject he was obsessed with. He did golf with Nixon, but during that one trip, Nixon had not one extra minute to drive off to a military base with Jackie. He was too obligated with other friends, writing a speech, and with George Meany negotiations. It just didn't happen. I sure wish it did, because it is an amazingly exciting story.

Then you believe his wife actually lied about the whole thing?

I think she was confused. On my UFO thumb drive, I have a lot of this downloaded, but it is not with me. I think she was a little confused about what happened and when it happened when she discussed it with that reporter. I think it was People magazine maybe, and several years later. I think another reporter, who also circulated the Walter Cronkite UFO rumor, may have confused her, or muddied the report a little, too. I think she was also trying to get a little publicity for a book, or project, she was working on at the time.

Jackie often told UFO stories, which may have been told with a wink, or maybe he half-convinced himself as he told them. Obviosuly, golfing with Dick Nixon on national television was an amazing milestone in his life at that time, as they were very close. I just think Jackie thought they were closer than Dick thought they were. I think it was in Spring 72 or 73, but my memory isn't great about that. The story is online at a lot of places, and was on C2CAM at least once.

Ive also heard that story from time to time,Jackie Gleason was known for his wild parties and Drinking.He loved both,therefore I kind of dismiss this one.

The other rumor is one with Reagan telling Steven Spielberg the truth about aliens. I can't remember exactly how that one goes, but I recall it was a pretty good one.

I think that one is connected to the Serpo story.?.....allegedly he told Spielberg that we had an ongoing exchange program which was then reflected in Close Encounters with the last scenes.

I don't think that's how it supposedly happened. Nixon stopped by and personally drove gleason somewhere.
