Weren't there proposals to do that in the US? Rutherford Hayes had proposed a sexenio-type system IIRC, although of course it never went anywhere.

Hayes was by the standards of the office an incredibly weak president where Congress was the more powerful organism (as were most Republican presidents in the late 1800s)

Morales in Bolivia tried to have the term limits thrown out and lost a constitutional referendum on it IIRC.
