So it looks like Arnold is trying to get the constitution changed so he can run for the Presidency. Good thing that it takes eons for an amendment to actually pass and be ratified

MrS

Hey! Stop crushing my hopes and dreams.

Arnold's bid to ammend the constitution will make the dreams of Evil Zionist Occupiers like me finally come true when we are able to run and take over the white house! Finally ZOG will become a reality not just a fantasy, and us Jews will finally rule the world as one.

Of course if you don't ammend the constitution, I'll just have to work my way up to the head of the US military and seize power the Latin American way

It's your call

President Schwarzenegger = Apocalypse

First off, I agree with the Constitution as it stands right now. One interesting thing to note, however. The clause almost caught John McCain when he was running for President. He was born on a US base in Panama, and it took a few legal opinions to fully determine that he would be able to run.

Cod help us all if Ahnult becomes president.

Come on, as if you don't want someone like this (see below) as your president. He'd smout those evil Muslims, and smout them good!

Damn, it would be so great if Arnold's initiative passes. Having him as the president of the US would be totally cool and awesome! If that happens, I'm moving to the states right away!

Well if he truly is a social liberal, why is he supporting Bush?

I guess he's obligated to.

Who knows, he might be an ok Pres. I'm still waiting to see what his record as Governator will be like first before I'd vote for him. But, if he brought the Republicans back to a more moderate keel, then that would be a very good thing.

As someone who is foreign born I agree with the current U.S. constitutional statute that states only U.S. citizens by birthright can run for president of its nation. Don't see why someone who wasn't born in the U.S. should be its president in the first place. Granted that someone would have to be a citizen for over two decades I believe if the constitution was to change to allow foreigners to run for president, I do not think that the current format should be changed to accomodate this. Then yet again I sometimes get the impression that I have a stronger appreciation for America and what it means more than some born Americans being that I know what it is like to live in a third world nation and take nothing for granted in America, so who knows.

From actor to President... that would be.... well... scary.

I bet his momma's proud though!

well he wouldn't be the first actor to become President of the United States. R. Reagan was before him...so sad now that he doesn't remember anything ( oh....like he ever did!! )

Now that I think about it, I think the Arnold presidency was preticted in the movie "Demolition Man" with Slyvester Stallone

Ouch that was rough, Alzheimers is nothing to kid about, saw a piece on the other night about how it can turn an active person into a vegetable over time, scary stuff indeed.

Yeah I know you're just kidding however about Reagan

Wouldn't be the first actor, but would be the first action film star

Still, I don't want that amendment passed. And if he does become president I'm moving.

Wait, so the right is all for this amendment but not for when Clinton wanted to allow more than 2 terms of presidency (2 terms, then a break, then another term, and not continuously)?

Huh? How are these issues one and the same? Furthermore, how has the right portrayed it as such? More pertinent to the issue, how do YOU percieve these two issues to be similar? I'm truly perplexed since the concept of term limits and grounds for eligibility are fundamentally diametrically opposed to one another. Oh yes ... the VRWC

I think that they think arnold will fuck up more then bush, so they would support him to make the GOP look a bit better.
