Arnold - "I will use machine!"

Arnold has taken a line from T3 and transformed it into a winning strategy. The current number of registered voters stationed overseas that can vote on a black box (Diebold) system will put Arnold in as Gov.

The number of voters in IRAQ and other bases from California will exceed the total that any other candidate receives. "You can take that to the Bank"

Wait, that's Steven Segal.

Fake voting machines and actors as candidates. USA - The Reality Show. I have a bad feeling this is going to turn into a nightmare.

is WWII so long ago and far away that having an active Nazi father doesn't matter? Apparently so.

he called himself a leader. what they heck has he ever led?

National Socialist was the government party at the time, and even politically-active Nazis weren't necessarily all evil through and through. may joined thr Party for expediency's sake, for that matter - sold out, sure, but I guess they thought that it beat the alternatives. But, yeah, it's still hardly a glowing commendation as to Schwarzenegger Senior's character.

But why should the son be painted with the same brush? Seems more than a bit unfair - it's not like he had control over his father's choices. he may or may not hold Nazi-ish beleifs somewhere with him - I have no idea - but he is his own person and I don't see that his father's affiliations has anything to do with it.

As a leader? I don't know. Maybe he's 'led' in some business concerns, or something but, yeah, it's not immediately apparent to me that he's a born leader or that he's qualified for the job. Of course, the same was true of the Chimpster, and look where he got.

I would suggest that perhaps Schwarzenegger is not as 'dumb' as some posters seem to think. I'd imagine that he's pretty canny and is expert at self-promotion and self-preservation, and I think it's dangerous to misunderestimate someone like that.
