Arnold Schwarzenegger is a celebrity politician in America, but in Austria he's a folk hero and idol. The New York Post's Page 6 reports today that Schwarzenegger's Austrian pal Hans Janitschek is writing a biography of the Terminator. The book, titled "Kaiser von Kalifornien" ("Emperor of California"), will be out in December.
The author has known Schwarzenegger for more than three decades, and his book draws not only from his life story, but "from astrologists, handwriting experts and the Gehmacher Institut, an Austrian market research group."
Here are just some of the book's findings:
37 percent of Austrians say that Schwarzenegger will be president and that the U.S. will change its Constitution to allow this. (Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, is already pushing for an amendment to allow this, but we don't expect him to succeed.)
Schwarzenegger has been valued at more than $800 million, but Janitschek says he's really worth $3 billion, "thanks to his savvy investments."
"Arnold also has dual-citizenship, having been allowed to keep his Austrian passport. Explains Janitschek, 'One can only get dual citizenship [in Austria] if it's considered to be in the best interest of the Republic. Arnold is a terrific Austrian,'" the Post reported.
One might think with all the hoopla over Schwarzenegger, Austria is set to become the 51st state. The Austrians see it another way, according to the author: "the Austrian public has come to regard California as their 10th state."

The dems said Arnold is an alleged former groper.
Well, now he's an alleged multi billionaire.
Worth almost 10% of California's debt from dem Davis dimwits.

Schwarzenegger has been valued at more than $800 million, but Janitschek says he's really worth $3 billion, "thanks to his savvy investments." An immigrant comes here with nothing, yet is now worth $3 million.
Yet, the Democrats who are actually born here bitch because they're not given enough in free handouts.
We need to get rid of Americas social programs. They're not necessary.

Getting a constitutional amendment passed is extremely difficult. I think Arnold must have this in mind, but I doubt whether it will happen.
No question that Arnold is a very smart guy, however hard the press tries to paint him as a dumb muscleman. (Media Law #1: All leftists are brilliant geniuses--like bill clinton, Algore, and Wesley Clark--and all Republicans are stupid and need handlers.)
Arnold has the brains and the ambition to stay on target and do something about California's money issues. I just wish he weren't so far off on the social issues.

I do not think Arnold is worth $ 3 billion nor do I think he will be president someday. Just an opinion.

If Hatch gets that amendment through Congress, the Republic is finished.
I can only imagine the reason for his attempting this travesty is to pave the way for an extraterrestrial U.S. President.

Well, special interests will have a bit of a problem paying him off, LOL. No wonder they are having a hissy fit.
He will do what is best for CA, as he promised. He doesn't have a for sale sign on his forhead, like Davis and Bustamante did.
