2 - Reasons
(1) It's ideal if the Chief Justice would preside over high-stake impeachment to make sure the impeachment is above party politics and solely based on the constitution.
(2) Fix the Legislative Independence Amendment

3 - Terms
(1) "Responsible for conducting impeachment trials after the house has impeached the official or ex-official, whereby a supermajority is required to decide a verdict. The Senate can only issue punishments to a verdict as specified within this constitution."

Under "Powers of the Senate" changes to:

"Responsible for conducting impeachment trials after the house has impeached the official or ex-official, whereby a supermajority is required to decide a verdict. The Chief Justice shall preside over impeachment trials if the President or Vice-President is the one under question. If there is no active Chief Justice or the senate beliefs there might be a conflict of interest, the senate may appoint the president pro tempore or a lower-ranking justice instead. The Senate can only issue punishments to a verdict as specified within this constitution."
