So I just heard on CNN (I think)..

[ObaMania]

.. that Madeline Allbright thinks it is a good idea to let foreign nationals run for *president*. Is this true? Is she signing on to the Arnold for prez thing?

God, is there no one who are (supposedly) on our side willing to stand their ground and fight the good fight or are we just wrong?

[Book Lover]

1. Being foreign-born herself, she should support the idea

Me personally, I'm OK with this idea - the presidency is not a sacerdotal office. It is a job.

3. If it's just a "job" then we should be able to "fire" the CIC.

Hell, with his perfomance appraisal, why is he still there? Who rated this guy? Rove?

5. she could run then. that will terrify the freepers

[Ice4Clark]

2. I keep thinking I'm caught in the twilight zone and will eventually

break free. I don't recognize my country anymore. I don't think there are enough of us left to fight the fight at home, let alone around the globe. One party system and theology is just a short time away and then they will come and get me. Might be a good thing to be put out of my misery. I weep for what we've lost and what might have been. For the first time in my life, I'm thankful I never had children.

4. When I Start To Think About It I Can Lapse Into a State Of Despair

I'm avoiding the news- I know that's probably not good-I'm focusing on things that will hopefully improve my life in other non political ways- Wish I had an answer for you- It really sucks- It doesn't help that some have left up the Chimp signs as a sort of in your face thing- Ugh

7. No Amendments to the U.S. Constitution whatsoever.

It should not be changed. I don't want a Saudi Prince coming over here with a duel citizenship running for President with his whole country's treasury behind him.

8. Yeah, like Bhander *B*u*s*h*! n/t

[raggedcompany]

9. I don't see what the big deal is...

If 38 states ratify, AND a foreign born candidate makes it far enough to actually gain 270 electoral votes, then so what? So what if the candidate was born in Milan instead of Waco, Austria instead of Tuscon? Seriously, I don't undertand the objection.
Are you afraid of some kind of Manchurian candidate from over seas? If anything, odds are that would be an improvement from the liberal perspective, considering the current state of our policy and so-called culture.
I'm not going into the streets over this one. This is a non-issue.

10. i would take arnold of W, that's for sure.

11. Jennifer Granholm for President

The Arnold talk is just a sneaky way to have the Republicans go along with a measure to get Jennifer Granholm electecd President down the road.
