term limits, it's our only hope

career politicians and their media enablers are a cancer on society

and while people hate politicians and they hate DC, they always reelect "their guy"

There should be an amendment for term limits in congress. It wont solve everything, but it is part of the solution.

Most is correct. There are a few that are good public servants but most are full of shit.


Im not for term limits.....I think elections are term limits and I don't wanna limit those that are actually doing the job well.

I think Trump is the least "full of shit" in campaign history, and believe he is correct when he said Hillary is probably the most corrupt & unfit person to ever seek the presidency...

I really hope Hillary doesn't win. Odds say she will, but hopefully Trump supporters come out of the woodwork.

Look at the vast majority of politicians - never had a real job in real life - never made ten cents - never proved they were successful in anything - yet they are going to show working people how to live and what to do? The fucken last two Presidents literally had no success in real life outside of education which Iverson would call practice

Bush started an oil/gas company (Arbusto Energy) in 1977.

I also am good friends with a guy that worked very closely with Bush when he was an owner of the Texas Rangers (1989-1994). He relates that
Bush was very active in the day-to-day running of the business (and did a great job BTW, and was well-liked by all).

I dont know about the energy company but i was always under the impression he paid 500K to be an owner of the team - i could be wrong - i know for a fact that Obama never accomplished anything in real life - yet woke up President after giving a speech about no red states or blue states

Bush was a minority owner, but was very active in running the operations day-to-day...

"In 1989, he assembled a group of investors that purchased the Texas Rangers baseball team and served as their managing general partner for the next five years."

They're just a reflection of the people and society. Who want quick fixes and easy solutions rather than nuanced policy and long-term solutions (some of which are not easy and involve sacrifice)

Once you realize how tied their hands are as it relates to any type of meaningful reform, you realize they really can't do much if they want to keep their jobs. If they start telling the truth then they will just lose to the guy that won't.
