Right. Which is why Schwarzenegger should run for President. That pesky "born in America" requirement is just a technicality.

I don't have the statute in front of me, but it would seem to me to be trying to say that he should have spent 5 years as a bar certified Attorney, i.e. is qualified to head what is essentially the biggest law firm in the state. Brown passed the bar in the 60's. It is not at all clear that being an 'inactive' bar member is meant to fall under the rule at all, and us suing to say that it does only makes us look desperate.
While I may disagree with Brown politically, he's clearly a compentent and experienced attorney, which is undoubtedly what the qualifications are written for.
