Please. no President Ahhnold.

Just heard over the radio: a California Republican introduced a Consititutional amendment to allow foreign-born nationals to become President.

As it stands, the Consititution absolutely requires that anyone who stands for election to President must be American-naturally-born-citizen. I'm not necessarily against naturalized citizens becoming President, but it really wasn't an issue until California got a Glamour-boy for a Governor.

Maybe they see him as the next Reagan. With an Austrian accent? Ai yi yi.

And, for the record, I am a Germanophile. Look at my last name! Good old fashioned German descent, baby!

But that's what I've come to expect from a party that sees the Constitution as a two-hundred-and-twenty-eight year old bit of toilet paper.
