You sound like the people who thought Obama was going to run for a third term. There was a lot of discussion about it back then, although I suspect you didn't follow it as closely as you are now, for partisan reasons. Obama gave a speech speculating about what he would do in his third term (while denying his interest, just like FDR did), which caused a bunch of articles to be written about it, and put the right into a froth for a period of weeks. There was a pending bill proposing repeal of the two term limit that didn't get anywhere, but it was pending in Congress at the time. Barney Frank was trying to repeal the 22nd Amendment to allow Bill Clinton to run for a third term...and Jose Serrano and others wanted to do it for Obama. R's have proposed such amendments for Republican presidents as well. It's all silliness.
