Yes, foreigners running the country would be an awesome idea.

Maybe Osama will throw his hat in the ring...

Yep, let's set precedence here.

We'll have a Saudi Prince for a President in 15 years.

And that would be worse than the retard in there now? And in what way would that be?

Does anyone know if Arnold would be eligible to be on the ballots for President even if he couldn't take office? If he could run and put in a good showing it might force the issue of foreign born people being able to become president.

I actually think Arnold would be a pretty good president (after everyone stops with the terminator phrases for everything he does). He is socially progressive and fiscally conservative which might be a nice mix.

I've always considered him to be more of a talking head for the California Republicans. The people behind the scenes do all of the thinking. I believe he was elected not because of his experience or ideals, but because Americans(Californians) have been inviting him into their homes for the last 20 years. He's a comforting face.

I don't know, Maria seems to have some pull with him. And he did run against other republican candidates, if I remember, for govenor. I totally agree that he has zero experience and he did spend most of the 70's and 80's all juiced up, but at least he admits it. I tend to like him more than current republican substitutes because he isn't such a zealot and I wonder if Arnold (see me not even trying his last name) or not it isn't time to get rid of that law.

??? Not when carrying a coffin on one shoulder and spreading the scenery with machine-rifle fire...

'I'm Baaack !'

But he was fighting bad guys. That has to count as military experience too. :)

*sigh*

i believe that the founders put that clause in the Constitution for a good reason!

Though i do like Arnold, i think he would not be a good choice for president, even if they DID change the law to get him to run.

Schwarzenegger=INTJ. I would be honored.

It was standard for bodybuilders to juice in his day. He used steroids perfectly. When you see someone who looks 70 when they're 40, it's because they went overboard.
