Schwarzenegger says that without his acting experience, his job in Sacramento would have been much more difficult. He also says he'd be interested in becoming president if it were possible.
By Michael Rothfeld 4:46 PM PST, December 21, 2008 Reporting from Sacramento -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn't said whether he would pursue another job in politics after his final term ends in two years. But there's at least one position he might be interested in, if he were eligible for it: president.
"Yeah, absolutely," Schwarzenegger said in an interview airing tonight on "60 Minutes" on CBS, when asked by correspondent Scott Pelley if he would like to be president. "I think that I am always a person that looks for the next big goal. And I love challenges. I always set goals that are so high, that are almost impossible to achieve."
At the moment, becoming president would be impossible. Schwarzenegger, who was born in Austria and became a U.S. citizen in 1983, is not a "natural born citizen" of the United States, as required by the Constitution.

Someone needs to let this guy know.
Arnie should have stuck to acting.....
All he has to do is say that he was born in the United States. Easy.
Don't worry Arnie. The rinos and dems will unite in getting the "Natural Born Citizen" portion of the Constitution thrown out just for you.
They've already pretty much ignored it.
Thank God its not possible.

It’s only a living document to be changed on a whim.
I'm emailing him. Who else wants to?
My understanding is ANYONE can obtain a COLB from the state of Hawaii, even if you were really born in Kenya.
I did. I don’t expect a reply though.
Arnold has been such a ‘great governor’ why not? /s
He would fit right in with the rest of the socialist who are running this country.
What’s to stop him?
Go away.
If a Non- Natural ( Obama) can do it....
hell then anyone in the World can Be President Of America.
in Fact Blogo is taking bidds for it on Ebay.
Here’s my letter to the L.A. Times, curth and I’ve given you a hat tip:

BTW, just a few minutes ago, they took the entire reference to Schwarzenegger and the presidency out of the article.
Who's to say?
