I sometimes consider becoming president of the US just to find out...

But would the president know?
I personally wonder why aliens would visit us. I mean, we're not all that advanced and we're pretty much a bad influence. *shrug* I dunno.

As compared to what? How do you know aliens would be advanced or righteous?

Well, I'm guessing they're advanced since they figured out inter-stellar travel. But we have no idea what they'd do if they got here.

Hmmm...let's see. Perhaps it should be taken from the aliens' perspective.
We are aliens, and discovered a generally habitable planet way the heck out on the edge of the galaxy. No wonder the single race of intelligent life forms are so socially inept. Atmospheric entry was carefully calculated for us to land in an uninhabited area so we wouldn't accidentally squish or fry any of the biped cloth-wearing mammals, as we bore a similar mark in our history when the Zorgs mistakenly touched down in the middle of one of our comic cons.
Remarkably, though the humans (as we learned to call them) had a number of their pathetic little tin boxes floating around in orbit, they were almost completely oblivious to our arrival. We set up our equipment and did a little research, and in conclusion were mystified as to how an intelligent race could be so ingenious and so blindingly stupid at the same time. However, we made a little oversight ourselves in our miscalculations of the daylight temperatures, and sort of melted down by 10:30 local time, thus reaching a rather ignominious end.
THE END.
What Jandalf thinks? It's all a conspiracy, of course. The government hides everything from aliens to money to cheesecake. Everything.

Yum...cheesecake. *thinks about cheesecake*
Man in black: "Hey give me that!" *steals my cheesecake*
Me: Noooo!!!! My precious! ...And strawberry too!

Chances are they would land in the oceans, thinking that intelligent life would live down there since there's so much of it.
I like the Douglas Adams story of aliens flying from all the way across the galaxy to destroy us, and ending up being eaten by a small dog.
