Arnold for President in 2008?

HeadlineOct 08, 2003

Meanwhile in Washington Utah Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch has announced he may push for a constitutional amendment to allow the Austrian-born Schwarzenegger to become president of the United States. The Constitution only allows people born in the United States to run for president. Hatch told the Salt Lake Tribune, “If Arnold Schwarzenegger turns out to be the greatest governor of California, which I hope he will, if he turns out to be a tremendous leader and he proves to everybody in this country that he’s totally dedicated to this country as an American … we would be wrong not to give him that opportunity.”
