[I'm ALL Right!]

Once again, if you want George Soros to buy his way into the Presidency, just change the Constitution. Sure, a lot of people like Ahnold, but it's the other potential presidents that present a huge threat to our country.

In my book, its "Ahnold"! Conservative Republicans just finished a tough fight to assure that a social liberal didn't make it to the White House. GovRino is a social liberal in the grand tradition of John Kerry and Ted Kennedy. We don't need to be amending the Constitution so some Hollyweird icon can have an opportunity to run for president. The American people won't go for it.

Shouldn't the electorate be able to decide that? If they are stupid enough to elect a foreigner who posses a problem to our security, they would be able to elect an American-born who is terrible for our security as well. Not that the situation might arise where a foreigner is better suited than a native, but that clause shouldn’t be there in the first place. It serves next-to-nil purposes and just alienates naturalized citizens.

I don’t know, and I might be wrong, but I heard the native-born clause was placed in the constitution to prevent any chance of British dominating our politics should the tides change. I don’t believe it is a problem anymore.

PS. Clinton is eligible to run for the highest office in France because he was born on a former French territory (Louisiana). The two should be perfect together. To bad for Bill France is only now instituting marriage lite.

I agree completely. I do like Arnold, but I don't want him paving the way for Kofi Annan to run for President.

NO NO NO NO NO!!

If a person wasn't fortunate enough to be born here .. that's too bad .. but that doesn't mean we should amend our founding documents just because some people happen to like Arnold. Good grief!
