America would do better if those in elected office were bound by term limits and we were rid of the career politicians. If normal people, not bent on being in office for life, were in the Congress, there would be much more sincerity and trust of campaign promises.
As it is, we elect our representatives to represent their own interests and to apologize to their constiuents when the go back on their promises. Too bad we have moved away from honest Americans representing us and have settled for the gang we have "representing" us today.

You actually believe "normal" people are more trustworthy than career politicians? What town do you live in? What is your career? Sounds like a fantasy world to me.

"Normal" does not mean "trustworthy". "Normal" means what the majority of people do. My experience with normal people has not shown much more familiarity with the truth than the majority of elected officials.

You can't pigeon-hole people like that. Throwing inexperienced crops of first-timers into the breach every two or four years guarantees nothing resembling trustworthyness, and certainly not competence.

Just because I said term limits does not mean one term. I would support 3 terms (6 years) for a congressperson, 2 terms (12 years) for a Senator. We already took care of the Presidential term.
You must live in a larger city (usually Democrat controlled...that WOULD explain your cynacism...lol)

the case could be easily that a fundamental problem in american politics is harvard, yale, and the rest of the breeding grouds that include foriegn service apts. and on down.

the fact you did not go to harvard wd itself be a qualifier.

that business about hitting a biker is knarly and he sd. have known better than starting a pissing contest.

and as you made it clear, if one is to enter a pissing contest,

stand on a chair................................

Nice try but Harvard is a great school. Even Bill O'Reilly went there.
