I am just curious and would like to know how many of you in answers would support electing someone NOT born in America for the President of the United States of America. The reason I ask is there is a mainstream attempt to hijack our constituion and make an ammendment to let foreigners run this country. Arnold Swarzennegger wants to be President and is getting powerful people behind his idea and the pressure is on to change the constitutional requirement of nationality. Do you support this?

Yes, I do. Let's say your wife was pregnant and during her 9th month of pregnancy, you take a trip to Canada. While in Canada, she goes into labor and delivers her baby there. Your child, while a citizen of the US, would not be elegible to become the President of the US. Now, don't you think all citizens should have the same rights?

right now, definite, i imagine he will be re-elected. that's difficult sufficient to united statesa. an incumbent president. the perfect probability the gop had changed into to go with a strong candidate that all and assorted might want to rally behind. as a replace, they'd a circus and the properly ringleader is now heading for the nomination. no longer precisely power. and extremely last, human beings do not dig some distance sufficient into the monetary condition of the country. they are all too busy attempting to stay afloat themselves. our congress has crippled our us of a with debt, yet no human being needs to carry them responsible. it really is all about "prevailing" interior the top, celebration vs celebration, and finally ends up being a lot less about what "ought to" take position. that one and all favors obama.

No our constitution is soiled enough as it is, doing this would soil it further. People not born in the U.S. that are not citizens already influence our elections through campaign donations to top contenders.
This is really a horrible Idea it seems our Constitution and our country are being hijacked.

I don't support changing the constitution to accommodate Arnold. It would open the door for anyone to be able to buy the Presidency--not just Hillary.

Governor Schwarzenegger has made it clear that he does not want to run for president even though people would like him to make the run ,anyway he could not he was not born in the u.s. and that is one prerequisite you need if you run for the office of president.

A foreigner is not entitled to be voted for President in the US according to its constitution. Thus, the choice would be Hillary Clinton for Demcrats and Rudolph Giuliani for the Republicans.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know who will likely win.

America isn't truly the land of opportunity until ANY citizen can, with the approval of the majority of his or her fellow citizens, reach the highest office. Anything else is just xenophobia.
