i'm thankful that amending the constitution is not an easy process.
Arnold for President

- Start date
Word. Even though it is a bit ridiculous of an amendment (wasn't it basically enacted to stop Alexander Hamilton from becoming president?), this country will never elect Ahhhhnold. A guy with that much of an accent? Come on....Toshi said:
Let them. Jennifer Granholm has a better chance than "Suck it up faggots" Arnie does of becoming president.
I don't see why somone born in another country shouldn't be able to run. By no means am I advocating Arnie (though we could do worse), but honestly, what is the difference between somone who has spent their entire adult life in the US, and somone who was born here.
Partsbara for president.
Just out of curiosity, how is Ahhhhold doing out there in the great state of CA?
I would think that there would need to be a long term residency requirement BUT I agree. My adopted daughter who was born in China and became a US citizen at 14 months old could not run be President.Damn True said:
Do other countries have similar laws?
I'd vote for the Predator platform.
Ahnold, President
Jesse the Body Ventura, Vice President
That Big Indian Dude, secretery of Defense and Casinos

Haha! Everytime Helicoptor 1 lands Arnie would lead his entourage on a mad dash as he screams.... "Run!!! Get to the choppah!!!!"BurlySurly said:
Chew tobacco spitoons would have to be placed all over the white house.
And NATO would freak out as the Big Indian would take off his suit top and cut his chest everytime there's a dispute.
Glad i'm not a hollywood Indian, that **** would hurt.....

I'll vote for partsabara for PM of japan.
And of course Carl Weathers to replace Colin Powell as Secretary of State. He's really the only choice.BurlySurly said:
Céline for president!
That'd fix your wagon good.....

Didn't Peru have a Japanese President that got impeached for funnelling Peruvian government funds back to Japan?
While I agree that someone who obtained citizenship at 14 months should be eligible, I don't know how I feel about those who came over as adults. If only to avoid any rumors or accusations about where loyalties lie, I think the cutoff should be something like 12 years old. This, despite recognizing that many immigrants are probably more loyal to the US than most citizens could ever be.
