Uh, it does not actually prove anything, other than possibly 80% of people from a sample of the population, when chosen by a particular sampling method, responded to a question that could be interpreted as "Do you believe in UFO's" in the affirmative.

It might prove that the US government is testing a lot of experimental air craft. A UFO doesn't always mean that it comes from another planet. UFO, unidentified flying object, could mean anything really.

It proves that the 20%:
1. Didn't understand the question, due to their education.
*OR*
2. Are staying silent because they are aliens.
80% can't be that wrong. UFO'S are real! Unite and get aboard! I've seen "Men in Black" - man. They're here!
(Insert drug joke here!)
LOL!

Nothing is PROVED. No physical proof can confirm their claims, just as no physical proof can claim that God is real. It is all in the MIND of the beholder. Have you seen any UFO's? Have you seen God? People see what they want to see.

Americans think outside the box. They have vivid imaginations. They have a desire to search out new things. They have a keen intelligence whereas they can see that in this endless universe there must be something out there.

It shows that some people have an open mind on the issue.
