>On July 10, 2003, Orrin Hatch, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, took action against what he calls "an anachronism that is decidedly un-American." He introduced a bill that would allow a person who has been a U.S. citizen for 20 years and a resident for 14 years to run for president.
I'm just just following history.
- jjeaff 4y agoIf you keep following that history, you will see how far the Republican party has strayed from the Republican party of 2003. But I suppose if they were going to present a bill like that again today, the only possible circumstance I could imagine would be the same as in 2004, where a popular republican might want to run for president but isn't a natural born citizen. (this bill was introduced soon after Arnold Schwarzenegger won the governorship in CA.)
