I have no doubt that opponents of the 22md Amendment said the same thing.

Constitution???? What in the heck is that? We haven’t followed that thing closely in the last 100 years. See FDR.

There were term limits ... and if people go back through history they will also find that the senate was an appointed body, not directly elected by the electorate. (17th ammendment, early 1900’s) Not such a bad idea with 3 consecutive two year terms and out congress.

I agree with an earlier poster ... the deadline on this ENTIRE bunch should be no later than tomorrow. Lock and load em all. They are all pretty much worthless in my view. Gasbags, morons and ......... I’ll let you fill in the following blanks before I get banned.
