I have a political science degree and could name two but recognized six of them. I wasn't sure if your article supported or opposed term limits. I was on a committee back in the day against term limits when there where no term limits. My main argument against them is to keep new blood in the system and make those in the system appreciate their position. If people want to be active in politics they do not necessarily hold an office although that is probably the best way to get things done. I was speaking to someone yesterday and she said that most politicians make all kinds of promises but when they get in office they just join the old boys club and forget about their constituents. Hopefully, term limits may curtail that activity. The survey was very accurate. I have a political science degree and could name two but recognized six of them.
