Arny for prez

"Many at the Tuesday and Wednesday celebrations say they are even convinced that Schwarzenegger also has chances of becoming U.S. president one day if he sets his mind to it and the Constitution is changed to allow foreign-born Americans to run.

In Britain, the William Hill betting agency set the odds of Schwarzenegger becoming president of the United States at 50-1 after accepting a number of bets that it would happen.

''If they ever change the Constitution, it would be for him,'' Bogen said.

''And it would be proof that in America, everything is possible.''

Yeah, just think, Straffo could possibly be the 2016 president..."Free AH4 for all Americans!" would be his slogan. :D

Arnie can keep dreaming if he thinks they're going to change that part of the Constitution.  It's not gonna happen, at least not in our lifetimes.

I never thought I would see some of the things in the patriot act. Never say never.

Passing a piece of legislation and actually amending the Constitution are two entirely different beasts.  It would take someone far more charismatic and well-loved than Arnie to provoke a fundamental change of that nature.  Not gonna happen.

 I totally agree.  I'll add that this is probably one of those areas where the left and the right are on the same page.....

Straffo would replace every A10 in the real US air force with typhoons and F16s with yaks...

Pilots would go to Nellis and call each other "spit dweeb" during Red Flag exercises !
