Arnold Schwarzenegger would like to serve in an Obama administration

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said in an interview aired Sunday that he would be open to the idea of serving as energy czar in a Barack Obama administration.

Regardless of whether he takes that particular job, Schwarzenegger, a Republican, added on ABC’s “This Week” that he’s now committed to continuing public service even after he leaves Sacramento.

Schwarzenegger endorsed John McCain at the end of January, and McCain has appeared with “the Governator” to praise his efforts to deal with climate change.

A Schwarzenegger appointment would add even more star power to a hypothetical Obama administration, and would allow Obama to make an appointment from across the aisle that would not upset his core supporters.

When George Stephanopoulous asked Schwarzenegger about the idea on “This Week,” the governor replied that he doesn’t "think about taking on a national role.”

“It’s hypothetical,” he added. “I’m always ready to help in any way I can, the United States. I've committed myself to be a public servant. I said to myself, ‘This country has given me everything. It's my time, now — I’m through with the acting and all of those things that I've done, body building.

“Even though I love all of those things still, for me, it's important to give something back, do my work without getting paid and give something back, no matter what I do. If I have this position or not, I will be traveling around the world and I will be promoting [energy independence], renewables, solar, windmills, … protecting the environment, protecting the oceans.”

Stephanopoulos followed up about Obama: “If he were president and he called, you would at least take that call?”

Schwarzenegger replied: “I would take his call now, I will take his call when he's president — any time. Remember, no matter who is president, I don't see this as a political thing, I see this as we always have to help, no matter what the administration is.”

Stephanopoulos said his question was prompted by a news report that he attributed to Newsweek.

Pretty much whoever America votes for, they're still screwed. Check out they're foreign debt. If i recall correctly, their debt is accumulating an extra $1 billion per week. : /

I also think Australia is in debt from the Rudd government overspending things (fixing Rudd's teeth)

The Obama campaign is condemning as “tasteless and offensive” a New Yorker magazine cover that depicts Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in a turban, fist-bumping his gun-slinging wife. An American flag burns in their fireplace.

wtf was with Phil Gramm's 'nation of whiners' remark? someone needs to lynch that idiot.

If you discount the political immaturity of the remark, particularly considering the fact that the economy and energy prices are the foremost concerns of voters, the remark in itself is not as absurd as it would seem at first glance. Despite the energy and credit crisis, as numerous officials have stated, the fundamental shape of the american economy remains in solid stead. The unemployment rate is below 5%, economic growth is still not negative and their petrol prices compared to the rest of the developed world is a joke. The economic problems have been heavily beat up by the media in the pursuit of their own ends.

The remark is also applicable to Australians. Energy prices today consume a smaller proportion of income c ompared to 12 years ago. Suck it up. Its called a free market. You like the good stuff, well don't complain about the bad.

We're not doomed, only the American people are. Sooner or later, everyone outside America, even me and you, would own a lot of American land

i think McCain is the most deserving of the two. However, that does not mean he will be a good president, and that's the most important. I'm quite undecided.

After reading the conservative blogosphere I'm over obama.

Bring on Nader

WTF. are you fucking stupid. McCain is a self confessed fucktard. the guy cant fucking use a computer and doesn't know which countries are bordering Iraq.....yet he is an expert in "foreign policy", and like he has said himslef, he needs to be educated in economics.

fuck you.

McCain is clearly a great orator with an immense aura of personality and excitement.

 

[JUSTINISANGLO]

I'm voting for McCain, he's tough on terrorism

Barack HUSSEIN Obama

That's his real name!

TBH, like I've said from the beginning, they're both fairly decent options as far as America's politicians go.

Gotta say Obama still takes the lead, though. He's not a creationist, and he's more likely to aim for better healthcare and welfare.
