Various public interest groups have been promoting such major constitutional reforms as the single six-year term for the American presidency. Several distinguished public figures and scholars examine this approach to governance and contrast it with the view that the primary purpose of the President and Congress is to preserve the present constitutional system. Contributors include Hedley W. Donovan, Senator Thomas F. Eagleton, Lou Cannon, I. M. Destler, and Kenneth W. Thompson.
