^ but dont you think with a GOP controlled white house, the best time for approval is between the next few years? i dont think too many republicans will deny the amendent, because they all know arnold makes a great figurehead for their party. and many democrats are in favor of the amendent on principle alone. we'll have to wait and see i guess, but i still stand by my prediction that it will eventually pass
as a side question, are you personally against the amendment? i am maybe in theory, but as a human being i think it is okay. besides, dont you think america will elect a foreign-born-now-citizen first before a woman or an african american? (not intended to be a bigot question, just speculation)

Personally I think wanting to get the minority vote would be more of a factor of one wanting to pass the amendment then the fact that Arnold is in favor of it being passed. While Arnold was an imoportant figurehead in this last election, don't put him on the 2008 ballot. One thing you need to remember is that the GOP is historically the Southeast. The Southeast is just now coming out of the effects of Reconstruction, and race can still be a touchy matter in lots of places in the Southeast. And that isn't just a black-white issue. The fact remains it is near impossible to pass an Amendment.

Hmm, personally I won't take a stand on the issue. I don't see anything wrong with having a foreign born President, but those who wrote the Constitution did, and I'm sure they knew more about running this country than I did. I think it takes a lot of time to learn about the US, and knowing the American's mindset is one of the keys you need to be a leader, and I think it's hard for a foreign born to know Americans' mindset. PERSONALLY, I think a Black Male Democrat will be elected President before a female or foreign born.

i guess i am for the ammendment a little bit, but not for arnold being prez. the way he is doesn't fit it at all. he's just a greedy little prick who thinks he can have anything he wants. he'd just **** up our society even more than it already is. if you've seen documentarys about him you'd see what i mean
