Oh and one more thing about the term limit thing and why I like it
For one thing it would limit the potential for corruption in the government. Politicians have less time to get “Corrupt” when there are term limits in place.
The second reason it would stop the various political games that people play. Just look at the crap that Congress has passed and a lot of the bills that include stipulations for various actions, activities, or funding requests that have nothing to do with what the actual legislation is supposed to cover. That bullshit needs to stop.
Here is one of my favorite reasons for term limits. Having term limits in place could encourage people to vote more often and maybe bring in new first time voters.
Here is a another good reason for term limits. They could help to bring in fresh people and new ideas in the Senate and Congress. Just look at Nancy Pelosi, she has been member of the House since 1987. That's way too long. You do your job and you move on and not make it a career.
Like it changes the perspective of what it means to be a politician when people are there that long. There are elected officials in our country who have served in Congress for over 50 years. Names like John Dingell and Robert Byrd fill the halls of this legislative body because they made a career out of being an elected official. Carl Hayden, Daniel Inouye, Jamie Whitten, John Conyers, and Carl Vinson all had uninterrupted tenures of more than 50 years as well. What is even more notable about this list is that with the exception of Strom Thurmond, Joseph Cannon, and Thad Cochran, the top 20 longest-serving politicians in the history of the United States were all Democrats.
By implementing term limits, we would change the idea of what it means to be a politician. Instead of turning this work into a career of its own, the service would become more like it was intended to be under the original Articles of Confederation – an act of civic duty.
Yes, there are bad sides to term limits to. But something has to be done to shake up the Congress and Senate. Because I believe that the whole world is facing a "One World Government" once USA collapses.
