If you read about out the legislative branch of the US has more less always had corrupt senators and congressmen or ones that at least greatly favored their constituency over what was best for the entire nation.

The problem is someone running for office can say they will do this or that and seem very anti status quo but when they get to D.C. they very quickly find that they are going to be able to do very little assuming they really wanted to do so much in the first place.I think the best cure would be to introduce term limits.

Yes. I promise to do this, but now that I am elected and entrenched in my position "forget" you (as Cee lo Green says, you know that forget is really a 4 letter curse right?)

You ever heard of Cincinnatus?

He was given dictator powers from the the senate of Rome. He won his war, reliquished his powers and went back to his farm. George Washington tried to follow this example. He was a shoe-in for the first American King, but wanted no part.

I am so for term limits, perhaps we will have more people like Washington and Cincinnatus rather than Gingriches or Romneys.
