To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
December 8, 1829, President Jackson, in his message to Congress, refers to the Presidential term, that it would seem advisable to limit the service of the chief magistrate to a single term of either four or six years.
In October, 1877, a proposition presented to the House that a presi- dential term be six years, the President not to be immediately reeligible.
The Constitution says nothing about the President's reelection, and there is no written law to prevent his being reelected a dozen times ...or more.
Custom has adopted a settled rule, that two successive terms are sufficient for any one person, established by the action of Washington and Jefferson, -who each declined to become candidates for a " third term. " Incident to a rumor that General Grant might be a candidate for a third term, in December, 1875, a resolution "that, in the opinion of this House, the precedent established by Washington and other Presidents of the United States, in retiring from the presidential office after their second term, has become, by universal concurrence, a part of our republican system of government, and that any departure from this time-honored custom would be unwise, unpatriotic, and fraught with peril to our free institutions, " passed with a vote of 234 to 18 ; the resolution was sup- ported by all the Democrats, who presented the motion, and by 70 out of 88 Republicans.
