Why Thursday? Because President Washington wanted it that way. Back in 1789, President George Washington declared Thursday, November 26, to be a national holiday of Thanksgiving. This was the first official American Thanksgiving to be held as a holiday. Thanksgiving was then held every year on the last Thursday of November. (Before that, different colonies, then states, held thanksgiving when they wanted.) In 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared that Thanksgiving would be the second-to-last Thursday of November rather than the last. Why? Because that gave more shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

If the president was an American citizen for more that 14 years, then maybe.
A person who has been vice president can be president for more than eight years. However, the longest time that he or she can be president is a total of 11 years.
Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only US president to be elected to more than two terms. He died during his fourth term and was succeeded by Harry Truman. The Twenty-Second Amendment, ratified in 1951, now limits a President's term of office to two elections, or ten years if he (or she) serves less than two years of the last President's term.Amendment XXII (excerpt)"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."
