It is not about any individual president or member of Congress

The fundamental issue is limiting the choice of the people to elect their representatives.

And, not loosing (throwing out) valuable expertise across the policy perspective and continuity in the legislative process....what might be characterized as efficiency....simply because it might provide greater transparency.

I dont think i ever expressed supreme faith in the average person choose the best guy. There is certainly no guarantee that massive turn-over every election would result in better guys.

I believe the Constitution had it right the first time...with no term limits.
