Mini-Post: In early January, before President Obama took the oath, a House Judiciary member, Rep. José Serrano (D. NY-16) presented legislation H.J. Res. 5. This resolution sought to repeal the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution, thus removing any term limitations on a President.
This information was originally attained from OpenCongress.org. Though, upon further investigation it seems the bill has been sitting in committee, more specifically the Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties, since January 9th. This is according to the Library of Congress.
Interesting that even before Obama was sworn in someone was thinking about a making him into a new Franklin Roosevelt, or tyrant, by usurping the Constitution.
