What has to happen for the president to get line-item veto power?

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a line-item veto is unconstitutional because the U.S. Constitution specifies that when presented with a bill that has been passed by Congress, the President's choices are limited to either signing the bill, making it a law, or returning it to where it originated along with his/her objections to it. Therefore, line-item veto power requires that the U.S. Constitution be amended to expand the President's choices when presented with a bill that Congress has passed.
