Even more important would be term limits for all members of Congress.

6 two year terms for House members.

2 six year terms for Senators.

There is a LOT of old, dead wood in Congress.

Unless you term limit the STAFF and government employees, term limits for elected officials will just result in a revolving door of nameless puppets.

The elected faces are puppets anyway. The government is run by career people, staff, lobbyists, and other unelected powers.

I think we should allow members of Congress to serve more than the term limits you suggest.

However, in order to do so they should be required to walk through every inch of their district with no bodyguards after midnight....

If they survive, they can run!
