no even if it was, he would be at the end of the list of foreign born people I would vote for president
-
yes ... but then I would miss his acting in new roles... "I'hl be back" He could always run for U.N. leadership roles... or he could just start a revolution and become his own president
-
sure, it wouldn't be the first time they changed it. although the president should have to do more to be elected. you know; writen and verbal tests, demonstrations of leadership, devise a solid plan for his/her administration if elected, stuff like that. just because you are popular enough to win a vote, doesn't mean you don't have your head up your @$$, just look at G. W. Bush.

Nope, there are plenty of people that were BORN HERE that can step up for that role.
-
No.

I'm fed up enough with the birth certificate crap that I'd almost say yes. But I don't think it's a good idea. I like that our president has to come from here and be raised here. It helps us know that they know what is important to us.
-
Absolutely not, the entire Constitution of the United States does not need to be completely altered so the Terminator can chill in the oval office.
-
WHAT??? HELL NO! If people would leave the damn thing alone, and follow it we would not be in such a mess right now! I am sick of them messing with what works! They need to stop!
-
I think the Constitution should have never been changed in the first place, but I think that only an "American" should be allowed to become an American President.
-
Yes. If he isn't "American" enough for the nativists and Lou Dobbs fans, and if they represented the will of America, he wouldn't be elected even if he was eligible. A number of English-speaking countries and others don't require their leaders to be native-born.

I am not in favor of changing the constitution for something like that. We have a good 300 million here. if not one of them is qualified to be president than oh well. It still blows my mind they would elect him governor
