I do recall that many years ago, there was a similar proposal to amend the US Constitution so that Bob Hope could run for president.

Though considering everything, it MIGHT be better than what's going on presently...

Hmm, well the republicans are all for changing the rules.

They changed the rules in the house/senate so that if you've ever been indited, you can't hold any leadership. They did this just to fuck over a democrat and force him out of the ways and means commission.

But now they want to put Tom Delay in that spot and guess what... he is about to be indited, only on a state level. So they changed the rules so that Delay can get into this position.

I wouldn't be suprised if they wanted to undo the 2 term presidency next.

As for Arnold, he's ever the tax and spend republican. He wants to put tracking devices on all cars in california and tax people by the mile driven in the state. Many have pointed out the privacy concerns not to mention that it would make more sense to tax cars by size or weight, to punish SUV's for being more damaging to the states roads as well as the air quality. But he's an idiot yes man for the republicans. Anyone who says things like "Don't be economic girly men" is a nut.

I agree with this xenophobic US only becoming Pres. As right now your own blood ain't doing a damn tooting good job at actually running it properly. >:D

In other words, you need fresh blood in there, some fresh ideas to pull up that country to a new era, a new beginning and well. To pull it out of the dregs really.

They'd regret it...it would make Jennifer Granholm (governor of Michigan, and one incredibly dynamic lady) eligible too.

Don't be silly. That will never happen.

I like the suggestion to push it into the future so that the amendment can't benefit anyone in politics now. As in, sure, they can run, but not for 40 years or some such.

I have mixed feelings about the amendment, but would be downright against it if it looked to be tailor-made for anyone in particular.

I think they should do it, just to make Demolition Man that little bit funnier.

I'm sure that looks much funnier from where you sit than it does from here.

I have very mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, I don't particularly like Ahnuld; on the other, at least he wouldn't be for sale! He's managed to piss off most of the Republican hierarchy in CA because he has enough of his own money to tell them to kiss off when he wants to, and it would be interesting to see how that played out nationally.

:D!

After seeing the Goobernator call liberals losers, Canada may just be a really big option.For me anyway.
