[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4225059, member: 5412"] We are a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy under any shape or form. The founders and framers gave this country the right for states to elect representatives to vote for them in the halls of Congress according to their wishes which has deteriorated to the point it's no longer observed. Congress has become political hacks looking to make bank with their personal finances and vote according to their wishes, not the wishes of the electorate. I know it would take a Constitutional Convention to introduce term limits as the Constitution omitted that, but if there were a way to have only that one issue on a ballot for an amendment to the Constitution, how many would vote for it? I would. Two terms and you're out. It's insane we let the mentally challenged like Pelosi and McConnel stay in office as long as they have, and it's not a current issue. Strom Thurmon had the record at one time. China Mitch may have it now. [/QUOTE]
