Should Members of Congress Have Term Limits Like the President?
 

Just curious what you think... and if you vote no please explain why. Thanks.

I think they should, yes. I haven't really seen any good arguments as to why they shouldn't. I could see longer term limits being acceptable, but certainly some form of limit.

They should have longer terms but definitely term limits.

It would be great but it would have to be agreed on by all the states or would have to come down on a Federal level.

Some states were considering this but then if all the states didn't then their own representatives would never be chairing a committee cause you have to be a "Sr." member of the House.

Would be nice to get rid of some of these career representatives out of touch with the people. It starts to look like the House of Lords....no offense to the Brits.

I agree, about 6 year terms would be good...

if you are a politician, merely mentioning term limits makes you unelectable.

do you really think the people in power want a time limit put on said power?

All that change, bunch of Obama supporters... :)

Term limits sound good, maybe we could use age instead of years served... force them to retire before death sets in. Then again, why change what we have if it's not being abused?

Robert Byrd of West Virginia has been in the Senate since 1959.

And he still sleeps on separate beds.....fuck ya there should be caps!
