Three terms?

Anchorage Daily Planet
Editorial

Never mind that many Americans wish presidents would serve only a day or two in office, former President Bill Clinton is saying they should be able serve three terms: two back-to-back, and a third, non-consecutive term, after a break.

The American people ratified the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution after Franklin D. Roosevelt won four consecutive terms and folks could almost smell the birth of royalty. Presidents now are limited to two terms.
