    Apparently someone thinks they can get an Amendment ratifies to give the President more

    http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-1...3hjres15ih.htm

    This is a bill to pass an amendment to the Constitution basically reversing the 22nd.

    No problem. Get 2/3s of Congress then 3/4ths of the States to Ratify.. fine.

    Until the States Ratify it is not valid.

    I certainly hope not. We may be able to survive 2 Obama terms, but a third is doubtful.

    Hmm. Why am I not surprised: José Enrique Serrano - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Democrat. East Coast. Representing the electorate that kept electing Rangle.
    If a man were behind four months on his mortgage and was talking to you about his plans to build an addition on his home you would think him daft and delusional. But in Washington, ignoring a current crisis to discuss grand dreams is called “boldness” and “vision.”

    I think he has submitted this proposed amendment every term for many years. I have read about it before.

    As OMD says this is nothing new for Rep. Serrano as he has introduced the same bill since 1997 no matter who was occcupying the White House.

    Funny thing is Republicans fell over themselves to get the 22nd passed after FRD.
