2. That was Thomas Jefferson's initial preference for the presidency but he later changed his mind - he thought - as do I -

that six years was too long for a president to be unaccountable to the electorate and that the chance of re-election was a motivation for the president to do right by the voters at least during his first term (he did think the two term limit should have been in the constitution from the very beginning).
