"I was speaking with one of these business owners who owns a couple of restaurants in town," Romney said. "And he said 'You know I'd like to change the Constitution, I'm not sure I can do it,' he said. 'I'd like to have a provision in the Constitution that in addition to the age of the president and the citizenship of the president and the birthplace of the president being set by the Constitution, I'd like it also to say that the president has to spend at least three years working in business before he could become president of the United States.'"

one often chooses the other for a running mate. Then it's all lovey dovey from there on.
Remember Obama vs H. Clinton?

I really hope someone asks Mitt about this, watching him scramble to explain his support for that Constitutional amendment in light of his VP pick would be highly entertaining.
