    Well, if you have term limits and get rid of lobbyists and big contributers who's gonna run for office. There won't be any incentive since you can't become rich and powerful anymore.

    Good point. (insert semi-sarcastic tone) it's not like anyone would want to run for office for the purpose of actually doing something good for people... (sarcasm switch off).

    Call me old fashioned, or an idiot, or whatever, but I just can't help but believe that there are still some people in this country who actually care about the people.
