It could be done through a constitutional convention by the states. Thinking about it, I really like this concept:

House - 2 year terms, 5 max = 10 years in house
Senate - 5 year terms, 2 max = 10 years in senate
President - 4 year terms, 2 max = 8 years

Max Total Federal service all elected levels 20 years - Vice President kind of throughs a wrench in this if their terms are counted

SCOTUS - 15 year term with a 10 year extension granted by peer review (I would make it consist of the 1 judge from each state supreme court, and the fellow SCOTUS judges)
