no. There was no offical law until the 40's. Roosevelt, the greatest president since 1865, ran for 4 terms, and won all of them because we were at war during WWII. He broke a long tradition of only 2 terms, as most presidents retired after 2 terms because George Washington said that no man should not serve any more terms. After Roosevelt's death in 1945, they made it law that you only get 2 terms of your own. So since, say, LBJ served a term because of JFK's death, he could run for his own two terms after that. He ran for one, and in 1968 he didn't run again because he feared he'd lose because the Vietnam War. So unless Clinton is the VP, and the president is killed, he cannot be president again. This is why he didn't run in 2000, or he would have easily defeated Bush that year.
Hilary will run, I doubt she'll win, the Dems need to put there money on Obama, his a winner.

How? And why are you so obsessed with me dude? It's not like I go out of my way to follow you around thru threads.
Trauma-san:
Bush is in the middle of two wars, and about to start a third. His vice president shoots people, Bush himself is soft on immigration although 75 percent of the country wants harder punishment, he had the largest terror attack ever on his watch, etc.
Clinton chilled in the oval office and got his dick sucked by the fat interns down the hall.
What am I missing here?

HAHA. A lot apparently. If only the comparison of 16 years of presidential gonvernance was as simple as you made things seem. Like I said, it's no wonder you vote Bush, your mind just doesn't function properly.
