Despite Being Bound by the Constitution, 75-Y.O. Arnold Schwarzenegger Confesses an Out-of-Reach Desire: “I See So Clearly How I Could Win”

Arnold Schwarzenegger found success as the Governor of California for two terms. While he departed from politics in 2011, the former Governor still wishes to return and run for a specific post. However, the Austrian Oak is powerless because while he has overcome nearly insurmountable challenges in his life, even Arine cannot defy the United States Constitution. However, the 75-year-old believes he would succeed if given the chance to run for President of The United States.

The Constitution states a candidate must be a “natural born American,” to be eligible to run for president. While the Austrian Oak has been an American in spirit since 1968, being born in Austria disqualifies him from becoming POTUS. However, in an interview with Chris Wallace, the bodybuilding legend confessed to his out-of-reach desire.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is confident he would win

While appearing in an episode of Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace? the host asked Arnie about his ambitions to become president. “Well, yes, of course,” answered Arnie. Schwarzenegger has mulled the idea of running for president, however, neither then, nor now, can the 75-year-old go against the Constitution.

In 2016, the Governator was against Donald Trump‘s candidacy. Schwarzenegger revealed he would have won then and believes he can win now. “I mean, I think the field was wide open in 2016. And I think the field is open right now,” the former Governor told Wallace. The seven-time Mr. Olympia also said he thinks there currently isn’t a political leader who can unite the people of America. “I mean who is there?” questioned Arnie.

In fact, the bodybuilding legend believes people don’t decide who they want to vote for but rather who they want to vote against. After hearing Arnie’s confession, Wallace asked, “If not for that, would you have run for president?” “Absolutely,” replied Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger has visualized success before achieving it. “It’s a no brainer. I see so clearly how I could win that election,” he told Wallace in the clip, made exclusive to People. During the interview, Arnold Schwarzenegger also explained why he feels so confident.

Schwarzenegger believes it is 2003 all over again

The Hollywood superstar believes the current political situation is a mirror of what happened in California in 2003. However, instead of a state problem, the problem has become national. “I mean, it’s like me and California,” said the Governator. He explained that it’s become less about the right-wing vs. the left-wing and more about finding the answer to several problems.
