I disagree with this proposal because the president can be elected to a maximum of two four year terms and therefore it would be unnecessary to allow the presidency to only have one six year term. Having the presidency as a four year term also helps to political parties because it doesn’t keep any one-off democratic or Republican Party in power for too long or at least a chance to if the president isn’t re-elected.
