06-19-2009 06:38 AMProfessional politicians should not ever, I repeat EVER, be voted for.....
Term limits don't seem to help. Until it is changed so votes cannot be bought, (like the verbal $1000 and free money BS that purchased the last election through votes by those who don't even pay a penny of tax), things will continue to deteriorate.Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!

06-19-2009 02:42 PMAfter Roosevelt served more than two terms it was passed as a Constitutional Amendment and ratified by enough states in 1951. Roosevelt was becoming too much like a king to some. He actually served some of his third term then died in office.
Jefferson was the first to decline a third term due to reasoning at the time by Washington no more than two terms should be served (hence the King issue).
The biggest reason the Amendment almost did not pass, everyone was afraid Presidents would not be able to accomplish anything during their second term as a lame duck.Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!
