22nd. It's probably done more harm than good.

Since it was started in 1947, here is how it changed American History-

1960- Eisenhower could of run, but was getting up there in years though he was only two years older than Reagan was when he ran in 1984. I wonder how his third term would be different than Kennedy's time.  (Civil Rights and the Great Society may or may not be delayed, maybe the space program would have been put on a more sustainable course where we started our Skylab/Space Shuttle stuff and didn't leave Earth Orbit until the year 2000, but we would be there now)

1988- Reagan was in his late 70s. He was probably going to retire, anyway and if he didn't, he would have probably won but not by the huge landslides he was used to. I think in 1992, Clinton or whomever would have run against Bush (Reagan would definitely retire) and win by a bigger margin than he actually did.

2000- Clinton would have easily won and won back congress which Dems in real life only lost by 4 seats in the House. (The 22nd really hurt our country)

2008- I think Bush would have still run once he saw how weak and moderate the field was. He would have probably lost by a slightly larger margin and probably lost Montana and Arizona and still carried Missouri and maybe even NC.
