1. Two Terms in the Senate (12 years) then sit out a term (6 years)to regain Senate eligibility's.
2. Six terms in the House (12 years) then sit out 3 terms (6 years) to regain House eligibility.
By forcing a period where the political careerist goes home and is “governed” instead of doing the “governing” would be very educational for them. (yeah I would like an "100 miles exclusion' zone ringing DC for these clowns during their period of ineligibility. But that's probably too much too ask!) Also it lets the career politician have a “political career”, his/her “groupies” could support the critter in other political offices, Governor, County Commissioner, state legislature, mayor. Maybe the critter should “dare I say it!” get a job in the private sector. Even George McGovern admitted that his “private sector” experience was a real “eye opener” regarding the problems of government imposed regulations.
correcting my typo
To break up the tenure that career politicians have on office, allow people to vote multiple times for their favorite political “critter” and to give career politicians a reason to support this, I propose the following for term limits
1. Two Terms in the Senate (12 years) then sit out a term (6 years)to regain Senate eligibility’s.
2. Six terms in the House (12 years) then sit out 3 terms (6 years) to regain House eligibility.
