22nd Amendment

The 22nd Amendment limited the amount of terms a president can have and for how long. One controversial topic relating to the 22nd amendment is if it should be repealed or not? One could argue that limiting a president to two terms for a length of four years each, denies citizens to re-elect a president they felt performed well. Also this puts pressure on the president because everyone knows when he is leaving. People can become uninterested and wait for the next successor and the president does not have the ability to shape the polictical agenda.
