-> If reform means getting rid of the last thirty years of reforms,
-> I'm for it. We don't need reforms, we need for the constitution
-> to be followed. Ernie P.
With respect, Ernie, I don't think it's that simple.  The Constitution,
says **NOTHING** about term limits.  Yet I don't believe that the
founders ever envisioned a permanent political class.  I think they
figured a man would spend a few years in politics out of civic
responsibility, then go back to his private life.  In that sense, term
limits is an attempt to restore the founders concepts.
One of the things that REALLY drives me up a wall is the idea of
pensions for elected officials.  If we did away with those, people
wouldn't spend their whole life running over and over again for one
office after another.  Again, nothing in the Constitution for or against
pensions.

John
