* TechnologicallyAdvancedFoe: The movie drives the point home early, as TheMothership is said to be [[PlanetSpaceship 1/4th the size of the moon]] and deploys individual craft to cities around the world that are still 15 miles across. In this case, though, it's said that human technological development is heavily based on the {{Area 51}} Roswell alien ship of the same design, so humans find ways to fight back in part because they had developed some familiarity with their technology.

He was a fighter pilot in the Gulf War in 1990, so he went from being a fighter pilot to President of the United States in just two years. That is an insanely fast rise in American politics. Conceivably he could have already been a politican and military reservist when the Gulf War broke out and he got called up, and then was demobilized and went to political life after the war ended.
