Are presidential term limits a bad thing?

Term limits have really not had any noticeable effect since they were put in place some 60 years ago. There have not been any presidents who seemed to want a third term and there have not been any presidents that any large number of people wanted to have for a third term. The only conceivable objection to term limits would be if there were a president who was so outstanding that nobody as good could be found to replace him . This has never happened in the almost 250 years of past history, so it does not seem likely that term limits will be a problem in the future. If the need arose, the term limits could be worked around by electing someone who promised to make the old president his chief of staff or something like that and promised to carry on like a clone of the old president.
