Theoretically speaking - If Schwarzenegger ran as Trump's VP (yes I know he won't), and was the VP and Trump was the President ... And someway somehow Trump passed away ... Would Arnold become The President? Because the VP is supposed to become President... But someone who wasn't born in American can't *RUN* for President. But would Arnold be able to become President this way??? Hmmm.

I've heard that such a person cannot be Vice President for this reason.
The VP must be eligible to be president as well.
Arnie could never be VP because of this.
If it were possible then instead of Arnie becoming VP it would just go to the next in the line of succession until somebody who was eligible was picked.
>>68200597
That's a big pasta.
>>68200597
>won't
Can't*.
VP must meet all requirements to be POTUS, including that whole ":natural-born citizen" thing, which Arnie is not.

What?
Isn't Cruz a Hispanic from Canada and running for president anyways?
Pretty sure there's a rule that a VP must himself be eligible for the presidency. So Bill couldn't be Hillary's VP and Arnold couldn't be Trump's.

Cruz isn't even eligible and he's running for President.
Schwarz is basically 'black' in German. Negger is basically Nigger.
His name is basically Black Nigger.

Rat Fink is eligible and so is Obama even if birthers are right and he was born in Kenya.
Natural born just means you were a US citizen the day you were born by virtue of your parentage, not physically born in the US.

It's like every thread is bait these days.

That's part of the issue with his presidency, and whether natural-born only concerns jus soli, right by land, or includes jus sanguini, right by blood to US Citizenship
Thing is, it has never been fully or accurately dealt with, and acceptance of US citizenship through parents alone has always been treated as citizenship through "Naturalisation at birth", since it is not immediately granted at birth and must be applied for.
>>68201484
Although if you are physically born in the US you become one too.
so
Parent(s) is US citizen + Born in the US = Natural born citizen
Parent(s) is US citizen + Born outside the US = Natural born citizen
Parents are not US citizens + Born inside the US = Natural born citizen
Parents are not US citizens + Born outside the US = foreignfag
Arnie could be VP, definitely. If the president died and he were, though, the order of succession would make it fall to the speaker.
There might be some statue about eligibility that would need to be resolved by SCOTUS, though, thus making it not worthwhile.
imagine if we got rid of the natural born citizen rule and term limits... how long until shit gets crazy?

Cruz's parents were registered to vote in Canada when he was born, which would mean they couldn't have been US citizens.
>>68201409
Wrong.
His name means "The Black Plough Man"
>>68200597
Damn - that bowl of spaghetti and meatballs looks good as fuck.
>>68200597
The Simpsons predict another thing?
>>68202026
it looks fantaaaastic
>>68201484
He is Naturalized at birth, not natural born.
