I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to meet Arnold, I know I wouldn't know what to say and maybe embarrass myself, but damn I
would love to squeeze a little when he give me his hand, like that dude (I think I read that here) who said he meet Arnold
when he was working in a hospital, shook his hand and thought "fuck it, it's a once in a lifetime chance ;D" Started Squeezing just a little
Arnold squeezed right back, squeezed a little harder... the end was that the dude backed down, Arnold put one hand on his shoulder and gave him smile that said: Better men have tried and failed.....

I laughed so hard when I read that story first.
But yeah meeting ARnie and getting a signed copy would be great absolutely awesome.

i guess my chances are getting smaller and when he is President it will be impossible to meet him.

Keep dreaming.  They're not going to change this part of the constitution and let a foreign-born person run for President. 

(From Article 2, section 1 of the Constitution:  No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President. see http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A2Sec1 (http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A2Sec1))

Governor of CA is the highest Arnold is going to get (unless he is appointed as Secretary of State by a future Republican President).  Interestingly, it appears that he could actually be chosen as a Vice-Presidential running mate.  Were the sitting President to die, wonder if he could become the President, since the Constitutional section above makes it clear that he is ineligible to be President.  Perhaps he would be acting President, until congress appoints a new President or new elections are held.

Write a letter to Rickey Lake!! I have heard they will have: Meet Your Idol show tomorrow :P
Arnold was my idol before, now I don't care. Have seen him act, talk, debate and train...he doesn't impress me anymore now when I got older (28).

vice president has to be born here too ::)

Thanks for providing a source for this info.  ;)

Per Wikipedia:
The Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution requires the vice president to meet the same eligibility requirements as the president. That is, the vice president must be at least 35 years of age, have been born a citizen of the United States, and have been a resident of the U.S. for at least the 14 years preceding election.

In addition, the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution states that "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States." This applies to the above criteria and possibly to the removal of eligibility afforded by the Presidential term limits defined in the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitution.

However, that is not to say that the two-term limit itself applies to the Vice-Presidency. There is no restriction on the number of terms a person can serve as Vice President.
