Bill Clinton thinks presidents should get 3 terms

Former President Bill Clinton criticized the two-term limit on the presidency during an appearance on Morning Joe, noting that leaders of states with parliamentary governments have benefited from a lack of term limits.

Host Joe Scarborough raised the topic. “Shouldn’t a president be able to take two terms, take time off, and run again?” he asked the former president. “Yes, I do, I believe that should be the rule,” Clinton answered. He made clear, however, that such a change could not apply to him. “I think that as a practical matter, you couldnt apply [the change] to anyone who has already served,” Clinton said, adding “I’ve always thought that should be the rule — not to affect me or anyone who has served, but going forward.”
