During the past 10 or more years, it has become evident that our Congress is out of control. This is not a matter of political party, but the result of too much power due to the long period of years many elected representatives have held office. After many years in office, they tend to forget whom they were elected to represent.
At least 75 percent of people I talk with think we should have term limits. Since the politicians will never do this on their own, the only alternative is to vote them out of office.
We will have the opportunity to begin term limitation on Election Day, Nov. 8, and I urge all citizens interested in good government to not vote for any incumbent. This is the only way we can put term limits into operation.
