A House bill has been introduced that would change the 22nd amendment and enable
George Bush to remain President for the rest of his political life. The bill would repeal limitations on a President holding office for a maximum
of two terms. An even darker scenario, Arnold Schwarzenegger is elected as President in 2008
and shorty after the 22nd amendment is abolished, making the Hitler admirer
our permanent Fuhrer. This is the modern day version of the Enabling Act, which allowed Hitler to
officially declare himself dictator. The bill, which can be found at the Library of Congress website here, reads
as follows. ---------------------------------- Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the
22nd amendment to the Constitution. (Introduced in House) HJ 24 IH H. J. RES. 24 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES February 17, 2005 Mr. HOYER (for himself, Mr. BERMAN, Mr. SENSENBRENNER, Mr. SABO, and Mr. PALLONE)
introduced the following joint resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on the Judiciary Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of each House concurring therein),
That the following article is proposed as an amendment to the Constitution of
the United States, which shall be valid to all intents and purposes as part
of the Constitution when ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the
several States within seven years after the date of its submission for ratification:
`Article -- `The twenty-second article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States
is repealed.'. ------------------------------ The 22nd amendment as reprinted on the FindLaw website reads as follows. Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than
twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President,
for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President
shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article
shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this Article
was proposed by Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding
the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which
this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting
as President during the remainder of such term. Section 2. This Article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified
as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of
the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the
States by the Congress. ''By reason of the lack of a positive expression upon the subject of the tenure
of the office of President, and by reason of a well-defined custom which has
risen in the past that no President should have more than two terms in that
office, much discussion has resulted upon this subject. Hence it is the purpose
of this . . . [proposal] . . . to submit this question to the people so they,
by and through the recognized processes, may express their views upon this question,
and if they shall so elect, they may . . . thereby set at rest this problem.''
