Thought: I am just wondering how many of those people are actually the politicians....

Holy Cow Batman! Is that a norm? I never imagined that many people would register....:eek:

That's because this assinine gubernatorial (and I really mean Goober) CALI-fornia recall has gone Hollywood. :ultracool

So does everybody think that AHH-nold Schwarzenegger will be our next governor? Well, what about Gary Coleman, Larry Flynt, Arianna Huffington, Gallagher or (porn star) Mary Carey?

Nah, forget that. Now, I'm predicting that the next governor of the great state of Cali will be the honorable Father Guido Sarducci-Don Novello!!!


Is this why my state is on the left (wacky) coast or what... :rolleyes:

As a citizen of the great State of Illinois, I vote that california needs to secede from the Union. We are tired of its tomfoolery! I mean come on, what do we need a state who's primary export to OTHER states is Celluloid... At least Nevada ships out Prostitutes. (Or well, we can ship in for em... :D )

Well at least AHH-nold Schwarzenegger can't run for Prez like Ronnie R. did back in the 80's. As we all know AHH-nold wasn't born here in the States, he's a naturalized citizen-immigrant... :borg:

No naturalized presidents allowed. Hasta La Vista, Baby!


:D

Well, there is a bill written up for US congress to amend the requirement that Presidential candidates should be US born. It went to committee. I haven't heard more (basically I didn't keep tabs to track). Apparently, there ARE people that feel naturalized citizens who have been here long enough are capable and loyal enough to lead the country. I'm not sure if this was written up with Arnold in mind for the future. I do know this subject did come up a few times.

Whether it will go far enough to actually be considered and approved remains to be seen.

Consider this:

Ross Perot runs on his own dime...takes a good showing in the election.

The next time he runs, there have been changes in election law preventing a candidate from funding more than a portion of his campaign, thereby solidifying the graft and sellouotism of the 'Special Interests'.

So, if Arnold wins Cal. expect the 'Natural Citizen' law to go into effect, thereby neutralizing the threat he could be, provided he doesn't toe the party line.

Personally.... I think -ALL- offices should be limited to 1 term, period. And, PAC and SIG $ should be outlawed. Make em go door to door again n kiss babys. :)

And that's CALI to you sir!! ;)
But, you're right, if there's a chance of an outsider getting in, they and their advisors or the next similar candidates will pretty much run into some tough opposition. :idunno:

BTW, I did major in Poli Sci in college, but, what do I know... :rolleyes:
