Mitch McConnell claimed we do have term limits it's call the voting booth. Mitch is a big part of the problem .

These losers only care about their lifetime career in politics. Biden is the poster boy.

That old claim is beginning to wear thin. When the elected don't uphold the constitution, place themselves above all else, use the two party system as a revolving door, and fail to provide election transparency, you get what we got at the capitol. We have a broken political system that is increasingly and correctly being viewed as feudalism.

I'm sick of all the bullying and name calling by both parties.
Time for a third party, independents, moderates and libertarians only
The motto should be "Lets all act like adults"

We tried to change it by voting for Trump ..........but the swamp proved to be to deep.Not giving up but it's going to take more time and effort to change.

Will you people PLEASE stop using the words *Constitutional Convention*? For America*s sake. KNOCK IT OFF!!!!
The last thing you want is THAT! Each Governor will pick two delegates. Think about that! You want Wolf picking your delegates? Then they all get together, and the Convention is called to order. There is no agenda. EVERYTHING in the Constitution is up for change/disposal/addition. The first order of business will be the Second Amendment. Can you hear the toilet on Capitol Hill flushing?

No shit, we do not ever want to see a CC occur until we have people we can trust in office. Which will be never!!!!

I don't think term limits will help at all. Congressional voting districts normally have their own political views. So if by chance if term limits come into a effect, Pelosi will be replaced by someone just to the left as she is. The same goes for all the rest; conservatives were be replaced by conservatives and liberals replaced by liberals. To sum it up; we will be losing many pro gun congressional members some with seniority to term limits.

If term limits only ban consecutive terms, expect a popular congressional member on the left on right that hit their term limit to run again the following election cycle.
