Yes, but how would they all do in the Thunderdome? Don and Don Jr. vs the reanimated Abe and George?
Many famous pollsters are saying that. Tall, handsome, well-built pollsters stop him in the street to say (with a tear in their eye), “You, sir, are the embodiment of the perfect president. Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson would quake in their boots if running against you.”
Fake Quote! Where’s the mention of “with tears in his eyes”??
Precedents were made to be ignored.
Yes, so let’s say that Biden gets re-elected and the day after he wins, he catches some bug that puts him in a coma. Kamala assumes the duties of the office and serves in the role.
If Biden wakes up from his coma and somehow is fine, he can’t run again. Meanwhile, Kamala can run and be elected twice, effectively being POTUS for 12 years.
Nope. If you serve more than two years of another guy’s term, you only get one election of your own.
But she would be acting President, who steps back to the Veep role if/when Biden recovers - not clear that that would count (and I would lean towards it doesn’t).
I think it would, but I’m no Constitutional scholar.
This includes the provision that a person acted as President for more than 2 years, so I would think even an Acting President would be covered, but, again, not a Constitutional scholar.
The devious part of me wants to use this in combination with the big lie against his orangeness should he try to run again.
“Sorry Donnie boy, the Constitution doesn’t say anything about serving two terms, just being elected two terms. Since as you repeatedly claim you were elected in both 2016 and 2020 (even if Biden stole it) you can’t run in 2024.”

However, just a few months into his first term in the White House, President Trump was seemingly uncomfortable with the war in Afghanistan, and he resented having to sign ‘Killed in Action’ letters which, in his mind, linked him to a conflict that he did not personally like but still oversaw, according to a new book by New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman.

Trump: “Dead people are such a bad look on me. I prefer people who don’t die.”

The buck passes here.
During the Iran/Contra hearings in 1987, I remember reading that someone posted a handwritten sign in the Select Committee hearing room that read, “The buck doesn’t even slow down here.”
Oh sure, use the actual words of the amendment in your rebuttal.
I didn’t recall that bit about ‘acted as President’, and now agree 2+ years of Biden in a coma would restrict Kamala to one elected term.
I just wanted to be able to say “my post is my cite” once in my life without feeling bad

The fucker’s still breathing, damnit.
And our cats are still dead, damnit.
Sometimes, the world just sucks.
He’s not allowed to die until he sees his world crumble around him. There needs to be accountability, dammit, or nothing will change.
Another year of Nobel Peace Prizes and trumpie didn’t get one. 
Well, that’s a relief.
