Do you think that this guy will be elected Pretzeldent in 2012 or 2016 ?

[jeff30997]

:scared:

PS:I'm watching The Simpsons Movie so expect more Screenshots and weird posts from me.:)

[jeff30997]

1. Seriesly?

Do you think it will append ?

[AlCzervik]

2. no.

[jeff30997]

3. No?

OK.If it's all you can say...

[jeff30997]

4. Look at that creature:

Is he electable ?:evilgrin:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

5. Is he married to a Kennedy?

Do we love celebrities?
Does he have name recognition?

[Auggie]

6. Can't be. He wasn't born in the U.S.A.

It's in the Constitution.

[jeff30997]

7. Constitution ? Err..

Yeah, right The Constitution ! Er...What?

[quip]

8. Yeah, Freeper, the Constitution. Maybe you've heard tell about it

Maybe you should stop watching cartoons and read it!

:rofl: :hi:

edit: Oops, sorry. I see that you are Canadian. Article 2, Section 1:

"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President"

[jeff30997]

10. Thanks for the apology but...

I was sarcastic:"Constitution?"

What I meant is the Repukes are using the Constitution as toilet paper.

PS:Since I registered on DU I know more about what's happening in the US than in Canada.(No TV)

[quip]

12. It's one thing to know of the Constitution; it's another to know what it says.

If you don't know what it says, then how can you tell the difference between it and toilet paper? :shrug:

[krispos42]

15. Silly temeah!

Toilet paper has ripples! The Constitution has those squiggly lines all over it!

:-)

:rofl:

[Kutjara]

9. Of course he'll be President.

They even said so in that Stallone movie "Demolition Man." And that was from the future, so they know what happened.

[Fleshdancer]

11. My feelings about Schwarzenegger being able to run for Prez are so conflicted

I would never want him as President, but I do want the Constitution to be amended in order for foreign born citizens to be able to become President.

I gave birth to my daughter in Japan. I don't want to tell her she can't be President.

[Frank Cannon]

13. Are you an American citizen?

Then your daughter is too, and is eligible to be President. It's naturalized citizens who are excluded.

John McCain was born in Panama to Americans.

[Fleshdancer]

14. McCain was born on an American military base which is considered part of the US

My husband and I are both Americans, but our daughter was born on foreign soil. If I had her on a military base, it would be different.

[petronius]

19. It's not different - if her parents are U.S. citizens, then your daughter is a

natural born citizen and eligible to be president. Why she'd want to be I can't imagine, but I'm sure she'd be better than the oxygen-thief we have now...

[Connonym]

21. "oxygen thief" heheheh, that's one of the more generous terms I've heard used to describe him

[Fleshdancer]

25. Thanks for the clarification

I misunderstood the natural born citizen rule.

At this point my daughter wants to be a fashion designer astronaut so I'm not too worried. Although I must admit she would be a better job than the oxygen-thief. :D

[MonkeyFunk]

23. No

your daughter is a natural born citizen.

[Fleshdancer]

24. all this time I misunderstood

My dad teased me about having a kid overseas because he thought natural born citizens had to be born on American soil. Serves me right for never looking it up myself.

[MonkeyFunk]

26. What a nice surprise for you and your family, then!

Go tell your daughter she can be President!

[BrotherBuzz]

16. An amendment to the Constitution would take decades to pass, if ever

and Schwarzenegger would be an old washed up retired movie star and governor by then. Now, Arnie becoming a Senator from Kaliforniea is a possibility that disturbs me.

[Kutjara]

17. Or the first President of....

...the newly independent Republic of SoCal. After the upcoming Pentacostal Civil War smashes the country into sectarian pieces, that is.

[BrotherBuzz]

18. I think he'd be to big a target and would end up becoming tarred and feathered

especially after he was shown to be ineffective negotiating with Northern California when the Girlie Men turned off the water spigot.

[Adsos Letter]

20. Ah yes...our water wars...the dividing line would be just below San Jose, I think...

:D

[Auggie]

27. As a Northerner, I would like Monterey too.

[Adsos Letter]

29. That's reasonable...

we can claim a strip of territory running down the coast to Monterey...it can become the "Danzig Corridor" of future conflicts...

:D

[baldguy]

22. If he can run

Then so can she.

[Tikki]

28. He's an ineffectual Governor...why would anyone think.....

he would make an effective President.....Oh yeah yuck,Ronnie Raygun...
