Just read this on NewsMax.com (perhaps it's a joke . . . I hope):

"Sen. Hatch: Amend the Constitution for President Schwarzenegger

Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, is pushing a constitutional amendment that would allow his friend Arnold Schwarzenegger to run for the White House.

Under the Hatch Amendment, foreign-born people who have been naturalized U.S. citizens for at least 20 years would be eligible to run for president.

Hatch introduced the legislation without fanfare last week, the Deseret Morning News reported today in Salt Lake City.

The Austrian-born Schwarzenegger said Monday that he'd decide within the next month whether to run for governor of California, where the disastrous Gray Davis is fighting a recall."

Didn't Germany do something like this right before another Austrian-born fellow took office in the 1930s? Ah, what the hell. Nothing bad came from that, right?
