No. Any citizen of the United States can propose a Constitutional Amendment, but it won't formally enter the process of amending the Constitution until either Congress or the State Legislatures take it up.
That process doesn't include any input from the President at all. In fact, the President may share his opinion of a Constitutional Amendment, but he may not veto it or in any way interfere with the process. Furthermore, the Courts have no jurisdiction over the process of ratifying a Constitutional Amendment either.
If you consider Congress and the State Legislatures to be representatives of the people's will, then only the People may formally ratify a Constitutional Amendment. This is best represented by the 18th and 21st Amendments and how the People decided to amend the Constitution and then decided to undo the same Amendment.
The 12th amendment to the Constitution provides for the president and vice-president to be elected in separate ballots. Prior to this amendment the person who finished second in the balloting for president was elected vice-president.
The 22nd Amendment
The 22nd Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified on February 27, 1951, specifies Presidential term limit restrictions, wherein "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."
The Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution prescribes that electors cast separate ballots for president and vice president. It replaces the system outlined in Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution. By June 1804, the states had ratified the amendment in time for the 1804 election.
The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in 1947, limitsa president to two elected terms. The amendment also prohibits a person from running for reelection more than once if he or she has already served more than two years of a term to which someone else had been elected. The Constitution of the United States specifies a four-year presidential term. It originally says nothing about how many terms a president could serve.The 22nd Amendment
No. The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution makes that not possible. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
The 12th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution says that a person must be eligible for the presidency in order to be eligible for the vice presidency. Therefore, a person could not run for vice president if he/she has reached his/her presidential term limit. Otherwise, no problem.
The 22nd Amendment to the U. S. Constitution limits the number of times a person can be elected President to one for those who have served as President or Acting President for more than two years of a term to which somebody else was elected and two for everybody else, but the two terms do not need to be consecutive.
The 12th Amendment of the Constitution states that electors are to vote separately for the president and vice president, on separate electoral ballots.Before this amendment the electors cast two votes in one election and the second-place finisher was made vice-president. In 1800 Jefferson and his running mate, Aaron Burr, tied in electoral votes, sending the election into the House of Representatives to decide and this event prompted the introduction and ratification of the 12th amendment in time for the 1804 election.The 12th amendment does this. .Before this amendment, ratified in the early 1800s, the person with the most votes became president and the person with the next greatest number of votes became vice president.
the new President can serve only one full four-year term.
This level of government is REGIONAL LEVEL.
No individual person ever changes the Constitution; it requires an amendment that has been ratified by three fourths of the states.
