I think FDR was in office for 3 terms. He died in office or he would have served for 4 terms. The 22nd amendment was passed in 1947 which limited a president's tenure to 2 terms. Many people were afraid that Obama was going to challenge that amendment and stay on for another term. I don't think he even contemplated the idea, but some of the democrats might have. In this era of false news who knows what is true and what isn't.

The point of the 22nd amendment is that it would be difficult (or unconstitutional) for a president to become a dictator. That was the basis of the fear people had.

Lorico [155]

It was believed that these three delegates refused to sign the Constitution because they were not happy with the final document for reason such as lack of Bill of Rights in the constitution.

How would franklin's albany plan of union have changed colonial government answer

Colt1911 [192]

Franklin's Albany Plan would have created "one general government" for all the colonies in order to defend themselves against the natives. However, each country would retain its constitution, but would grant to this new government the authority to govern all relationships with the natives. This new government would have a president general appointed and a legislature elected by the colonial assemblies. Every colony rejected this plan of union, so no new government was ever taken into effect. Hope this helps! :)
