I guess I can never run for President then.

Must be a load off everyones shoulders.

Hmmmm...Schwartzenegger, Austrian. Wasn't the guy who was the leader of Germany about 60-70 years ago Austrian, too? See what happens when you let those pesky Austrians run a country?

Gee, if we're going to change the constitution, why not repeal the part that says the POTUS can only serve two terms or ten years? Then Dubya could cheat his way through yet ANOTHER election.
