February 27, 1951, Twenty-second Amendment.

Term limit of two terms, should have been for ALL federal offices, with elections of federal judges also with term limits.

The framers never foresaw that humans would live to be 100+
and thus did not include term limits as they thought that nature would remove elected officials from office.

“Term limit of two terms, should have been for ALL federal offices”

I think for the house of represenatives, it should be 10 years or 5 terms. Or you need to change the house so that 1 term is 4 years. I think 2 terms of 2 years is too short.

However the real problem is not the lawmakers. It is the permanent bureaucracy in DC.

It does no good to change the coach if all the players remain on the team.

Or if the band sounds lousy, changing the drum major isn’t going to help.

You really need term limits for federal employment in DC.

No the framers never saw being an elected official would be such a lucrative job. They saw it as some one giving back to their country for a few years then moving on.
