Passed the bar. Served as council in the Watergate hearings. Spent years practicing law. Served about ten years in the Senate. Oh, and did a little acting on the side over the last 20 years, then after leaving the Senate in 2003, began acting regularly."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

He was admitted to the bar in 1967, so he may have been to busy to enjoy the '60's.I wasn't enthusiastic about his campaign, but on paper his qualifications look more impressive than someone like Obama."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

Yeah, if he was oh maybe 15 years younger and a bit more enthusiastic about running a presidential campaign, I would have liked to see what he could offer. I was saying he was a politician first, actor second. Reagan and Arnold were the exact opposites. I probably won't vote for another actor, or ex-wrestler (see ex Minnesota governor)...

Reagan achieved his foreign policy goals, unlike the last 3 guys. (or the two prior to him) I don't think Arnold would have been a bad one either, but the question matters not, since there is no chance that rule will be removed in time for him.
