The one thing The Simpsons had wrong was Arnie as the POTUS. I wish that was the time they ignored the constitution – I think he did a decent job as the governator.

He did a decent job in that he didn't drive California into the ground. I was living in L.A. at the time. People voted to re-elect him because "he hasn't been that bad" and Phil Angelides was a terrible candidate. I wouldn't say he was an exceptional governor. Mostly he just maintained the status quo. Which, from what I hear (I no longer live in California), is still better than Newsom.
Thanks for taking the time to give a local's insight, as a foreigner my point of view is limited!
A lot of people thought he did a great job. Probably because it's so easy to be governor of California and do a terrible job.
It's not in the constitution. The first 15 presidents and all the original set of American politicians were literally insurrectionists and the original documents were very clear that, that sort of thing is allowed and protected. It's later interpretations of statists that negate it.
Oh look. Later. I'm not sure why you felt the need.
Isn't it more like guidelines? French constitution has the first thing written be "everyone is equal, regardless of origin, race, or religion." It doesn't prevent Muslim frol being persecuted, or women to be paid less.
Brent Peterson is the best president
