SCHWARZENNEGGER WANTS CHANGE TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT
Newsmax ^ | 10/29/04

Posted on 10/29/2004 7:11:28 AM PDT by areafiftyone

California's movie star governor Arnold Schwarzenegger says he wants to be able to run for president and approves of moves to raise the constitutional ban on foreign-born US citizens holding the highest office, AFP reports.

"Yes, absolutely," Schwarzenegger said when queried by CBS "60 Minutes" about changing the Constitution to allow foreign born citizens to run for president

"Why not? With my way of thinking, you always shoot for the top," the Gov. Schwarzenegger said.

"Ten being the highest, I would give myself an eight," he said, evaluating the job he has done in California. "I think I fell short on some of the things."

HELL NO!! HEY ARNOLD - is that why you ran for governor just so you could maybe run for president? Funny, I though it was to help the people of CA?? I heard you're not doing a great job of that either.

He's doing ok with CA. Certainly better than we were doing.

But I will never support allowing a non-native to become president.

I prefer he become King of Aquilonia. I know I've been waiting for quite a while to see it happen.

Hey Arnold, why don't you do something in California first, you know, like an accomplishment or something. No state in the union has more opportunity for improvement than California.

Even if something ain't broke, it doesn't mean we can't make it better. I say 25 years as a citizen, then give them a shot.
