They made them short so a president would not serve for his lifetime if he wanted to and they made it more than one or two years so there wouldn’t be an election every year(cuz like that people most likely wouldn’t vote )and so the president had enough time to do what he would like to do for the country

Answer:

To limit the tendency to Run for life

Explanation:

elective terms of office were made purposely short seldom more than one or two years because of the tendency of elective officers to run for life and also the conditions for voting-in elective officers where kind of difficult to be maintained,

also it was made short so that elected officers who do not perform very well can be voted out of office in a shorter time by the electorate. and also the short time given will ensure that elected officers perform very well while in office to get a re run

Even so, a relatively large group of Chinese immigrated to the United States between the start of the California gold rush in 1849 and 1882, when federal law stopped their immigration.

With the onset of hard economic times in the 1870s, European immigrants and Americans began to compete for the jobs traditionally reserved for the Chinese. With economic competition came dislike and even racial suspicion and hatred. Such feelings were accompanied by anti-Chinese riots and pressure, especially in California, for the exclusion of Chinese immigrants from the United States. The result of this pressure was the Chinese Exclusion Act, passed by Congress in 1882. This Act virtually ended Chinese immigration for nearly a century.
