Some changes made to the constitution over time include amendment changes, voting law changes, voting age changes, and limitations to Presidential terms. Originally, Presidents were able to serve for as long as he was elected and only white men 21 years of age and over were allowed to vote. Now, the voting age is 18, all legal citizens are allowed to vote and Presidents are only able to serve 2 terms.
