That is still an interesting bit of trivia that Chester Arthur was born in Canada. I'll have to remember that one. Thanks for the little factoid!

Turns out that the claim by Clypp was false. Chester Arthur was not born in Canada. He was born in Vermont.

Yea...I just caught that...but there does seem to be some conflict here:

This was the first thing I noticed of interest from a search of Dunham Flats, Quebec on Google....not that it is gospel...If someone else wants to pursue this further, then I would be glad to listen, but I have a lot of work to do right now! I am just taking a break to look over FR.

even if it where true, and I have never heard that it was, the rule is only native born US citizens can run for President, you can be born outside of the US and be run for president if you were a US citizen at the time of your birth. Of course the is not what Arnold was and I doubt there is no support for changing the rule on that one.
