To: The United States House of Representatives
6 year, one-term Presidency
Proposed that a constitutional ammendment should be passed that changes the term of office of the President of the United States from a 4 year term with a second term available through election to a single six-year term with no option for a second term
Why is this important?
I would like to suggest that rather than a 4 year Presidential term of office, with the option of a second 4 year term, we change to a single 6 year term with no second term option.
I belive that first it would give a leader and his/her team a chance to initiate changes and have enough time for the policies to mature and perform during their term. Further, it would eliminate the (typical) two year period of campaigning for a second term, that cannot help but detract from quality management of the public's business as our national leader. I also believe that it might dramatically reduce the escalating financial cost of our 4 year election cycle.
