The issue deserves action by all three branches of government.

Nowadays I am wary of all of them.... the trust factor is fast approaching “zero.”

Barack Obama is an aboration in American History. I suspect that his long term effect will be “Zero” re. Article II.

In 20 years Obama will be on top of the trash heap of history lying right on top of Jimmy Carter.

If it is changed, it will be like FDR and term limits. Plenty of people wanted to change that when FDR ran for a third term, but they waited till he was out of office.

Any change in the future would certainly (1) be after Obama is out of office and (2) grandfather in anyone currently in office or in line for the presidency (vp, speaker, etc...) just as the did with the original constitutional requirement. So Jindal (if he was the sitting VP) would certainly be grandfathered in on the “new standard.”
