Right, Romney or Hillary would have been a *big* improvement. Or Kerry, or Gore, or Dole, or Dukakis, or Mondale . . . Term limits would have gotten us some or all of those clowns, which is strong evidence that term limits are useless as a means of advancing liberty.
Rather have Obama for 4 years or eight years? Now that is a tough one. How about Harry Reid? Six years enough or do you want 36 years? Can't defend freedom if you are hiding from Obama in fear.

"That is only an irrational argument invented by statists to prevent the people from limiting terms." Wow, certainly can't argue with that ironclad, airtight logic.
That's the idea but unfortunately for most not the fact.
If we do have a constitutional convention I hope that the citizenship puts enough pressure on the incumbents to amend the constitution to include term limits for all federal elected positions.
That is only an irrational argument invented by statists to prevent the people from limiting terms. Include some real penalties for an office holder not fulfilling promises and easy recall in the last year in the term limit laws. The pols need to become public "servants" again. They give up rights and power to be elected, not gain rights and power.

"If there is NO second term, there is no re-election distraction for that last year service." Not always a good thing, as it can sometimes free term-limited statist politicians to inflict considerable damage on their way out.

I'm easy.
Oh, wait . . . . Obama.
IMO, Jesus is the door to God.
I do have a right to blow my nose at dimwits who govern me, though.
