List of Domestic Affairs Ministers of the United States (The Co-Presidency)

The Domestic Affairs Minister of the United States, (earlier referred to as the President of Domestic Policy) is an office created by the Co-Executive Amendment of 1957, which split the offices of the President of the United States and Vice President of the United States into two separate offices. The position of Domestic Affairs Minister deals with all issues inside the United States. It is notable that the judicial branch mostly focuses on issues pertaining to the office, though they have jurisdiction over both offices.

Elections
Elections are held every 2 years alongside House elections. Incumbents can run for election 3 times before their term constitutionally expires.

Notables
Though a minister is held to three terms collectively in both offices, they can split their terms in each office as long as they are appointed or democratically elected. Only two ministers in the timespan of both offices have done this, Inaugural Domestic Affairs Minister Richard Nixon, who held the office for two terms from 1957 to 1963 won the Foreign Affairs Ministry in 1966 and served until the end of his term in 1969. Ted Kennedy has also done this, serving as Foreign Affairs Minister from 1979 to the expiration of his term in 1981, as well as further serving as Domestic Affairs Minister for two terms from 1985 to his impeachment and removal from office in 1988.

One of the biggest events involving the office was a successful impeachment. Minister Ted Kennedy had been impeached and removed from office. Kennedy's term had been plagued by scandal after the discovery of a 1969 homicide case that was covered up while he was a Senator. Kennedy had refused to step down as minister and was tried for murder within the Republican-controlled congress. The sitting Foreign Affairs Minister, Lloyd Bentsen, publicly stated that he was disappointed in Kennedy and supported the impeachment process, though he believed his innocence. His brother, former Domestic Affairs Minister Robert Kennedy served as his attorney during the impeachment trial. Though he publicly defended his brother as much as possible, he was reportedly "shocked and disappointed" at his brother's admission of the homicide. He has since distanced himself from both his brother and the trial.

The trial resulted in multiple country changing events. After his removal, Geraldine Ferraro assumed the office of Domestic Affairs Minister. This was the first, and to date, only woman to serve in either position. Ferraro selected reverend and former Ministerial candidate Jesse Jackson as her Undersecretary. He was the first African American to hold office and paved the way to Barack Obama's election as Minister in 2008. Republicans used the impeachment to swing the 1988 elections in their favor, electing both Senator Richard Lugar to succeed Ferraro and re-electing George H. W. Bush to a third term as Foreign Affairs Minister. They also gained many seats in congress.
