3. NM

Didn't read the article.

I don't even take Newsmax seriously when they write pro-Taiwan/anti-China stuff.

4. Wonderful

I can't think of any upside, this is a disturbing development. To make it worse, I bet he will pick Limbaugh or Hannity to be his vice president. Not to mention Coulter as national security advisor.

[Cush]

5. Um, he can't run

Unless they change the law

[Cascadian]

6. Orrin Hatch wants to change the law.

aprt from this Newsmax and Lansing Journal article, I did hear something about it last night on the radio. What if it does pass?

7. Right, even Coulter said the best thing about Arnold is

that he can't run for president. Unless those links up above detail some plan to change the law.

How about posting a quick summary so that we can decide whether to read the whole pieces or not?

[PaDUer]

9. That's right...

he wasn't born in the US.

[Dover]

8. Well they ARE attempting to change the laws allowing

those who weren't born in America to be president.

Another fascist figurehead?

11. Hitler was Austrian

yet he took over Germany, didn't he?

10. Changing the constitution is far more complicated than

some shit heel senator from Utah introducing an amendment. It's nearly impossible in this day and age.

[oxycontinrush]

12. Amendment would never get 2/3 in Congress or the States

I believe a Constitutional Amendment needs a 2/3 majority in Congress and 2/3 of the states to ratify. It wouldn't pass the Senate. There is also absolutely no way and hell 2/3 of the states would vote to allow "fur-i-ners" to be President.

13. The anti-immigrant wing of the Republican Party won't like that

Of course Republicans only like immigrants if they are from Austria, Cuba, Korea or Vietnam.
