Gerald Ford UFO Advocate

Gerald R. Ford, who picked up the pieces of Richard Nixon's scandal-shattered White House as the 38th and only unelected president in America's history, has died, his wife, Betty, said Tuesday. He was 93. "My family joins me in sharing the difficult news that Gerald Ford, our beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather has passed away at 93 years of age," she said in a statement. "His life was filled with love of God, his family and his country."As a U. S. Congressman in 1966, Ford stuck his neck out and made the following statement after the U. S. Air Force declared the Michigan UFO Wave of 1966 could be explained as "swamp gas." "In the firm belief that the American public deserves a better explanation than that thus far given by the Air Force, I strongly recommend that there be a committee investigation of the UFO phenomena. I think we owe it to the people to establish credibility regarding UFOs, and to produce the greatest possible enlightenment of the subject."
