On a side note, I believe the founding fathers had a discussion about term limits too...  I think I remember reading it in college a long time back.  From my memory, the founders decided against it because there were some draw backs to limiting terms, plus they figured the elections would also work as a check against bad representatives.

 

Is it the time spent in office that corrupts, or is it the motivation that corrupts?  Obviously, it's the motiviation.  If you don't fix the finance issue, termed limits really wont help.  The billionaires and corporations will just keep hiring new shills every few years.  

 

It's the money that corrupts, not the time...
