The very first thing GAG will do when re-elected in November 2020 will be to REVERSE the 22nd amendment! For what purpose?

You are ignorant aren't you? Well the 22nd amendment was passed by congress in 1947 and ratified by the states February 27, 1951. It limits a president to two terms or 8 years.

FDR served 4 terms and of course the opposition party was green with jealousy and LIVID. Thus limitations was set which GAG will upend to ensure a GAG will be president as long as america is extant. Congress will roll over because you see simultaneously Congress will vote to eliminate all parties that are not GAG approved.

All pols will be repubbaccans forevermore. A no brainer fer shure.

Simplify the political process to its essence. Merrily we roll along roll along roll along merrily we roll along until our dying day.

What's not to love? Try it you'll like it. Everyone says so. That I can tell you.

    President cannot do that. Requires 2/3 vote by Congress to amend the Constitution. Or a new Constitutional Convention which requires 2/3 of states to conviene.

    Or the Supreme Court to rule against the Amendment.
    (not legally, but that's never stopped them from amending the Constitution judicially before.)

    Has the Supreme court voided an amendment before?  Can part of the Constitution be ruled unconstitutional?

    Yes ... by ruling the ACA legal, the Supreme Court voided the 10th Amendment.

    The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

    Nowhere does the Constitution delegate power to the United States to regulate healthcare.
    Nor does the Constitution prohibit that power to the States.
    Thus, the power to regulate healthcare is reserved to the States.

    The same is true of education.

    As to the second question ... yes.
    If part of the Constitution is amended illegally, it can be found unConstitutional.
    For example: it has been alleged for years that the 16th Amendment was never legally ratified because the language ratified by various states was not the same.  If that were true, the court could rule the Amendment unConstitutional and strike it out.
