Very True
Correct me if I am wrong but it would apply for the 2012 election.
You can't change the rules until he completed his second term. You can't tell a man who has already been president for four years that he is no longer qualified
Same applied to FDR when he won four terms and they put a two term limit
FDR was elected to his fourth term in 1944, Presidential term limits was the 22nd Amendment passed in 1951.
If the Amendment had been passed and ratified in 1943, then FDR would have remained President but would not have been eligible to run in the 1944 election.
Each Presidential administration is legally a separate entity with all new elections between.
