Because to amend the Constitution you have to propose an amendment in Congress, then it has to be formally passed by Congress. After being passed by Congress, the amendment is sent to the states to be ratified, but it has to be ratified by 3/4 of the states within a 10 year limit, otherwise the amendment is not added to the list of amendments
When either 2/3 of both houses or 2/3 of the states "deem it necessary" is the only limitation placed on the amending of the US Constitution. Very careful consideration has been used to date in making such changes.

Although the founding fathers were brilliant in creating a foundation for government in America, they knew that the Constitution was far from perfect. That is why the constitution is known as a living document because as society changes (ex. abolishing of slavery) the constitution changes as well. The constitution can be amended and new clauses can be added.
i think it is 700... *: )
27 amendments to the U. S. Constitution have been ratified. Besides, I don't think the President has anything to do with the process of amending the Constitution.
