Question

The 22nd Amendment sets term limits for the office of the president. What issue did this solve that had previously only been a tradition since the original Constitution?

Answer 1

Before it was established, two-four year terms were common because president Washington popularized it by his choice to do so. This was however never a written law, when the 22nd Amendment was created it was due to the fact President Roosevelt won four terms.

Hope this helped! :)
