Arnold has had a great deal of success in business beyond Hollywood. He's also been very involved in the community and politics for a decade or so I believe, contributing to many different child groups etc. Is Arnold qualified? That IMO simplifies the issue too much.
being Governor isn't something you necessarily do solo. Just like any other high level position in government, you have aides and advisors guiding your decisions. If Arnold appoints proper people to be near him that are experts in their field (like his economics advisor whos name escapes me) then he doesn't need to be an expert there himself. Very basic concepts in governing. I think the most important question to ask would be not if Arnold is qualfied, but if he's trustworthy and competant. Personally I'm thinking yes for both.
Quick note as well, many interviews I've seen, whether its with some democrat or rep, they say that Arnold is very intelligent and capable person - in general not specifically talking about his qualifications as Governor. Might not necessarily think that just from seeing his movies or media spotlights but apparently thats the case.
