Wow. One of the NY Time's token "conservatives" thinks he's smarter than the Founders.

The Founders were men, not Gods, and like all men they were not infallible. I approve of this proposed Amendment.

I approve of this proposed Amendment.

Enjoy President Soros, pal.

It'll be a cold day in Hell before I let this happen to my country.

Never said they were gods. I do, however, think they were correct in realizing that a foreign born President would face serious problems as Chief Executive. After all, should he/she take actions that impacted his/her homeland, it would be inevitable that the question of dual loyalties would taint the policy debate.

This proposed amendment is dead. No one is going to amend the Constitution to satisfy the ego of an unproven governor.

You're going to have to hang out around here just a tad longer before whatever you approve of or disapprove of counts for more than a bucketful of rat droppings...

Sorry. That's the way it is.

Here's why I don't support this amendment: What if let's say someone had grown up in Iran and moved here at, say, the age of 25. They are now 55. However, even though they have been here for so long, my question is would they be able to be impartial to the nation they hail from. Would they be willing to bomb their mother country if nessesary, putting their friends and family at risk? That is why the founders put that qualification in the constitution.

This idea sêms to be a start at giving "the world" a voice in US elections.
