Now this, I would consider. The only reason that this issue is even being raised is because of Arnold. I'm sorry people, but the man is not eligible to run for President of the United States. Period. And I am certainly not in favor of ammending the U.S. Constitution just in order to grant him that eligibility. It may be a dynamic document...but it shouldn't be permitted to be changed on a whim. Otherwise...the Constitution is useless.
If there are those that feel that strongly, that foreign born citizens should be eligible, then the caveat of a 30 year "fuse" built in, should not pose a problem.
