@Cyclist this talks as if the presidency is a dictatorial position. It is not.
The president unbound from needing to seek reelection? No that's not really how it works. The president constantly has to seek approval from the Congress. He can't do anything without Congressional authorization in one form or another, without our representatives constantly empowering him.
In effect, in the US system, the president is continually having to seek re-election, just in the form of legislative approval and empowerment.
This article is a fever dream. It's not realistic at all, it doesn't reflect how the US government is structured.
