Yeah, but term limits are easier. I consider that repeal to be a later task once CoS has finished playing out for term limits and people are more familiar with the process.

One big issue with term limits is that the staffers, who wield a ton of power in DC, aren't termed out. You have to include them and then we can talk.

On that note, a lobbying ban after leaving office is necessary as well.

Nobody thinks it's a panacea. It's more like a first step.

I've got to head out to a grass roots meeting right now, but there's been a lot of work done on this topic. I'll follow up with some of that information when I get home.

"Term Limits" has been used a bit of a red herring for awhile. It's gotta be done right and for the right reasons.
