Quoting: MississippiBlkMan "The time has come to end presidential term limits, because continuing the restrictions on how long one can serve in the country's highest office is bad for the United States,"claims Jonathan Zimmerman a history and education professor at New York University.

Quoting: natasha77 Feel this. The fucking tyrant has a wet dream, and he wants to be dictator. He already is, but wants to come out of the closet.. Nothing will stop him. he is narcissistic enough. Government is a body largely ungoverned. |

My personal belief is he would most likely use the UN as Secretary-General with a heavily Dem Congress ceding US authority to him. Other failing countries will follow. This president works around the Constitution. He has spent years with liberal professors/lawyers on ways to circumvent the laws of this nation. Or nothing happens and he disappears back into the bathhouses in Chicago. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 48412925 United States 12/02/2013 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The President would have to be a really good one for the term limit to be abolished. Since we don't have a good President I don't think we need to worry about this being passed. Quoting: Dirtyboy Nixon was in favor of establishing one 6 year term as President. Nixon said too much time was spent on re-election politics. A lot of time is spent at all levels of government just on doing things to get re-elected. There is still no limit on Congressional terms. I think this is a bigger problem. Probably most people vote for incumbents because they believe the incumbent knows what he is doing. I you serve a partial term in Congress you get a full pension for life and free health care. No where else can you get a job like this unless you are a corporate executive. What we need is a real charismatic speaker to get on TV every week with an easy to understand show explaining what goes on in Congress every week. I think if everyone knew what goes on in voting bills with multiple little scratch my back spending people would become more outraged. We should all be outraged that no budget has been passed yet. The Congress is still fooling around with other things and not he budget. Obummacare needs to be fixed or trashed and that isn't being done effectively either. I agree with you. It is time for a Constitutional Convention with the sole goal of limiting Senators to a maximum of 12 years and Congressmen to 8 years. Also, a Capital limit by any entity for campaign donations at a maximum limit of $500,000. |

Those goddam Irishmen always trying to kick the shit out of my country." Or, "Schmidt, another fucking German, I should have known the moment I read the headline it would be some subversive fucking square head." Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38145955 You open a story like this, it is always the fucking jew, always, without exception. 2% of the US population, 100% of the trouble. Painful Truth, but Truth none the less. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 48412925 United States 12/02/2013 10:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | theres no such thing as presidential term limits. only reason why presidents normally exit after 2nd term (with the exception of Nixon who tried for 3) was cause George Washington ended his presidency after 2 terms. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44683927 Ever hear of the 22nd amendment to the Constitution. They put it in after F.D.R. died. |
