The constitutional changes to the presidency are under 22nd Amendment of the constitution of United States and it restricts president to serve more than 2 terms of 4 years along with provides restrictions on how long a President can be in the office and the election of the President in 12th amendment was also part of it.

Further Explanation:-

The 22nd Amendment of the constitution of the United States sets limits on the number of times an individual can apply and is eligible for the post of President and also limits the eligibility conditions for the Presidents who succeeded in the unexpired terms with regards to their predecessors.

Before this amendment came into effect, there was no limit imposed on the term limits and it was former President, George Washington who established and introduced this two-term system which was followed after that till now.

The concerns with regards to the number of presidential terms came when in the presidential election of 1940 and 1944, Former President Franklin D. Roosevelt became the first president to win third and fourth term and that was when this issue came to rise of a president serving the unlimited number of terms.

Congress came up with the 22nd amendment in the United States Constitution on the year 1947 and after ratification from the State legislatures; it was completed on 27 Feb 1951. This amendment prohibits any individual who is elected as a President from serving no more than two terms.

Why did Spanish colonists begin to rely more heavily on the Atlantic slave trade by the mid-1500s?

Maru [420]

Sharp decrease in numbers of native Indians.

One of the main reasons why Spanish conquistadors had to look for slaves from Africa, was the radical decrease in the populations of native Indians. The Indians had either died out of diseases or during the war of conquest. In addition, inter marriages had also occurred, and usually the mestizos were exempted from months of forced hard labor in the farms and the mines. However the main cause of decline of populations of native Indians was diseases such as small pox which the Spanish colonists had brought with them.
