Your thoughts ? Opinions of any current political NOT of importance here, more a question posed of re-addressing the guidelines for person presenting their bid for President.

The purpose of the law requiring a president to be a natural born citizen of the US is supposed to be an indicator of his loyalty. I question of the loyalty of past presidents who seem more ready to comply with the UN Charter than the US Constitution.
I don't think there is any reason to change the Constitution, other than to repeal some of the Amendments that have been added over the last century.

While I'm not too keen on the Governator's political views or personal scandals, I do believe that the American People have the right to vote whomever they want into office. I feel that the best option that our forefathers gave us is the ability to change the Constitution, and to stick to old policies simply because we're used to them will make the government and even our lifestyles stale.
While for the most part I'm a conservative (go big government!), I believe that this decision should be in the hands of American citizens, not only their representatives.

I think Arnold is a fool, but perhaps the better way to ask that question is, should only people born in the US be allowed to hold the office of the president, or would someone who WANTED to become American be allowed. There is a big difference between having a choice and just plain circumstances.

No way! Natural born American citizens only. The framers were right on this.
If you changed the constitution then not only could Shwartzenegeroolweiwla runt then Boy George could too. Of course George would be about as good as Arnold.

As much as I like Arnold, I am not in favor of changing anything to pave the way for him. This sets a dangerous precedent for later on. Please think past the process. If would save us all a lot of problems.
