Clinton in favor of ENDING Term Limits
Bill Clinton told the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum that he does not agree with the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution. That amendment prohibits a US President from serving more than two terms. This amendment prevents Clinton from running again.
The amendment was passed after FDR served 4 consecutive terms. Clinton says that the law should only allow Presidents 2 consecutive terms. This would mean Presidents could run at a later time. He cites rising life expectancies as a factor.
Clinton says that later on a country may experience problems that a previous President helped people face. He says: "People would like to bring that man or woman back but they would have no way to do so." Clinton did not say he wanted to return.
