I think that amendment only applies to Americans, not to Kenyans.
One of my uncles was in his late 80s and he forgot to turn off some bacon one morning and he almost burned the house down. My dad just turned 93 and often tells me the same thing several times an hour or two apart.
That makes me wonder what those justices are thinking when they make their decisions. Most people want to retire and live an easy live when they turn 60 or 65, and these people want to stay there forever, i.e., Sen. Robert KKK Byrd.
Term limits should stay for the President. But we should add them for Senators, Representatives, and Supreme Court Justices.
Be in D.C.!
Wow. I’ve got to do more research on the 16th amendment. How could someone declare it enacted by decree, legally? And to think that everyone has just gone alone with it all these years.
Yep, our current Secretary of State has the greatest personal and professional integrity that any public servant has ever had. She and her husband are role models for all of us in their honesty and integrity in their various public offices that they have held. (sarcasm)
He will promis the a*ses..I mean masses, “peace, land, and bread..”
The day that is passed, is the day Americans better be prepared to do one of 3 things: Fight for the Constitution and win, live your lives under a dictator or leave this country.
If anything, we should add term limits to Congress

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! I am convinced that if they had 8 year terms max the corruption and the problems would decrease to a mere fraction of what they are now.
Never happen.

My God, it’s a miracle. We agree. But probably not for the same reason. I believe it will never happen because the citizens would rise up and we would see protests like they are having in Iran. I am going to guess you believe our stellar Senators would never vote for it.
I would like to see term limits for Congress, the Senate, and the Supreme Court

DITTO!!!!!! That’s the one thing that is really screwed up. It makes no sense whatsoever.
I think the Constitution should be ammended to provide for a vote of no-confidence, where the entire freekin government, all 535 of the idiots, go home!!
Then we start over.
Poor man wanna be rich.
Rich man wanna be king.
And a king ain’t satisfied til he rules -everything-.
That’s Revolutionary talk.
