Good post!
I have come to believe that we should limit the terms of elected officials to one term... Never, Never, Never; reelect anyone, then they can not set up dynasties, or promise anything since they will not be there to do so...
Originally the Congress met for about six (6) weeks a year; and except for a very few emergencies, did their job well... Limited taxes & involvement in the lives of the citizens... Now Congress meets for all but about six (6) weeks which is when they are on Holiday or vacation; and what do you think they are doing, but raising taxes & restricting the freedoms of we the people... HUH!!
Something to think about!! BTW: Political parties are not mentioned in the Constitution... So it would be great to throw them out and just vote for the best man/ woman and let the chips fall where they may!! DUH!!
My ideas anyway... Kermit
