  • Mcconnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117Th Congress
    For Immediate Release, Wednesday, February 3, 2021 Contacts: David Popp, Doug Andres Robert Steurer, Stephanie Penn McConnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress Praises Senators Crapo and Tim Scott for their work on the Committee on Committees WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following the 50-50 power-sharing agreement finalized earlier today, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the Senate Republican Conference Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress. Leader McConnell once again selected Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) to chair the Senate Republicans’ Committee on Committees, the panel responsible for committee assignments for the 117th Congress. This is the ninth consecutive Congress in which Senate leadership has asked Crapo to lead this important task among Senate Republicans. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) assisted in the committee selection process as he did in the previous three Congresses. “I want to thank Mike and Tim for their work. They have both earned the trust of our colleagues in the Republican Conference by effectively leading these important negotiations in years past and this year was no different. Their trust and experience was especially important as we enter a power-sharing agreement with Democrats and prepare for equal representation on committees,” McConnell said. “I am very grateful for their work.” “I appreciate Leader McConnell’s continued trust in having me lead the important work of the Committee on Committees,” said Senator Crapo. “Americans elected an evenly-split Senate, and working together to achieve policy solutions will be critical in continuing to advance meaningful legislation impacting all Americans. Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit our nation, our economy was the strongest it has ever been.

  • Republicans' Mexican-American Presidential Candidate: Mitt Romney?
    Republicans’ Mexican-American Presidential Candidate: Mitt Romney? By Ted J. Chiappari and Angelo A. Paparelli* Four years ago, one of the challenges to President Barack Obama’s Constitutional eligibility for the presidency as a “natural born Citizen” was based on his ostensible dual citizenship at birth and the divided loyalties1 that can result from multiple citizenships. More recently, Mitt Romney’s Mexican heritage made it into the news because of Newt Gingrich’s claim that Romney was “anti- immigrant.”2 Reports of Mitt Romney’s eligibility for Mexican citizenship appeared around the same time.3 With the suspension of Rick Santorum’s presidential campaign and Newt Gingrich’s concession that Mitt Romney will probably be the Republican Party’s 2012 candidate, Romney and Obama are beginning in earnest to highlight their differences. Since both candidates are facing the potential liability of having a father born abroad (George Romney in Mexico and Barack Obama Sr. in Kenya) from whom eligibility for dual citizenship may flow, it is unlikely that either candidate will wish to highlight his opponent’s transnational ties. If they did, as unlikely as it may be, a brief reflection on the issue could result in a new appreciation of the intricacies of the U.S. citizenship laws. In the wake of the last presidential election, we explored the complexities of U.S. citizenship law in connection with the candidacies of both Senator John McCain – born in the Panama Canal Zone – and then President-Elect Obama.4 Given Mitt Romney’s birth in Detroit, no one is questioning that he is a “natural born Citizen” eligible to be President pursuant to Article II of the 1 Competing loyalties have long been a concern in policy and legal arguments against dual citizenship.

According to the latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll , Hillary Clinton continues to lead Barack Obama – now by 14 points – among likely Democratic voters in New Jersey. On the Republican side, it appears that nearly all of former Rudy Giuliani’s supporters have transferred their affections to John McCain, who now holds a commanding 32 point lead over his nearest rival Mitt Romney. The Democratic race is now down to a two-person contest, 50% of likely Democratic primary voters in New Jersey indicate they will vote for New York senator Hillary Clinton to 36% for Illinois senator Barack Obama. Another 14% remain undecided. Former North Carolina senator John Edward’s departure from the race does not seem to have benefited one candidate over the other. On the other hand, former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani’s withdrawal from the GOP race after his third-place finish in Florida has been a boon for Arizona senator John McCain. McCain now leads the four-man field in New Jersey with 55% of likely primary voters, to 23% for former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, 7% for former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, and 3% for Texas congressman Ron Paul.

RETHINKING PRESIDENTIAL ELIGIBILITY Eugene D. Mazo* Many aspiring American Presidents have had their candidacies challenged for failing to meet the Constitution’s eligibility requirements. Although none of these challenges have ever been successful, they have sapped campaigns of valuable resources and posed a threat to several ambitious men. This Article examines several notable presidential eligibility challenges and explains why they have often been unsuccessful. The literature on presidential eligibility traditionally has focused on the Eligibility Clause, which enumerates the age, residency, and citizenship requirements that a President must satisfy before taking office. By contrast, very little of it examines how a challenge to one’s candidacy impacts a presidential campaign. This Article seeks to fill this gap. It also offers a modest proposal: Congress should pass legislation defining exactly who is eligible to be President and also implement procedural rules that would expedite presidential eligibility cases for review to the Supreme Court.

  • Sarah Palin the Entertainer Vs
    Sarah Palin the Entertainer vs. Sarah Palin the Politician Lincoln Mitchell, Harriman Institute, Columbia University Posted: 06/ 7/11 10:26 AM ET In recent days most of the energy in the Republican nominating contest has been take up by Sarah Palin's bus tour. Palin, who moves more seamlessly between entertainment and politics than any politician in recent memory, may, like her erstwhile New York City pizza companion, Donald Trump, soon realize that running for president is likely to be an unsuccessful and not particularly lucrative endeavor. For now, however, she has become the main story in the GOP primary, disrupting Mitt Romney's official announcement, drawing attention away from Herman Cain's recent rise in the polls, and reducing Rick Santorum's announcement of his intentions to seek the Republican nomination to a non- story for all but the most devoted followers of Dan Savage. There have, of course, been politicians who have moved between entertainment and politics in the past. Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sonny Bono, for example, were all extremely successful entertainers before moving into politics. For these three men, the film or music industry was their first career, out of which they transitioned before running for office. Once in office, they all focused their attention on being president, governor or congressman, not on the next move as entertainers. Palin is different. For her the line between entertainment and politics is so vague that it is legitimately difficult to know whether she is beginning a run for the White House or simply seeking to keep her name in the spotlight as other candidates begin to vie for the right wing voters with whom she is so popular.

  • Preparing for a Disputed Presidential Election: an Exercise in Election Risk Assessment and Management
    Preparing for a Disputed Presidential Election: An Exercise in Election Risk Assessment and Management Edward B. Foley* This Article considers the possibility that a major dispute over the outcome of the 2020 presidential election could arise, even without foreign interference or some other extraordinary event, but rather just from the ordinary process of counting ballots. Building upon previous research on the “blue shift” phenomenon, whereby adjustments in vote tallies during the canvassing of returns tends to advantage Democratic candidates, it is easy to imagine a dispute arising if this kind of “blue shift” were consequential in the presidential race. Using examples from both Pennsylvania and Arizona, two states susceptible to significant “blue shifts” in previous elections, the article shows how the dispute could reach Congress, where it potentially might metastasize into a full-fledged constitutional crisis. The most frightening scenario is where the dispute remains unresolved on January 20, 2021, the date for the inauguration of the new presidential term, and the military is uncertain as to who is entitled to receive the nuclear codes as commander-in-chief. In order to avoid this risk, Congress should amend the relevant statute, 3 U.S.C. § 15. INTRODUCTION ............................................................................. 310 I.
