Ah. I see the mistake.

I was referring to term limits having been set on our reps in the State's capitol. Not the Federal reps.



That decision upheld the states right to limit state representatives terms..

theres nothing in the constution saying we couldn't limit the terms of our senators or representives . all we would have to do is open a consution convention and do it . but before you even dream about it think about it .....
the would have the power to change what ever they want once it has started . and the courts could not undo it .
now think of it this way . the people who go to the convention well be politicians . the ones we have now .. which ones would you trust that much ? Theres only one I would is TOM TERRACREDO and thats one out of how many ? 50 states .... think really hard . its abused enough now .
can you imagine an admendment saying you have to by law marrie a gay .. they can do that if your not careful .

ummmm didnt George Wallace drop out because someone put a bullet in his gut?


Ross Perot was doing fine until the media and late night comics started portraying him as a clown with big ears. and the sheeple bought into that and to this day he has the reputation as a nut case

but some things Ross Perot did that are not common knowledge

in the 70's he chartered a 747 with his own money and loaded it up with care/christmas packages for the america POW's in Hanoi. The Vietnamese refuse to allow them off the plane and they sat there for several days before the Vietnamese ordered them to leave

when the Iranian Revolutioin took all the hostages at the American Embassy. They also took hostages from his company EDS (the atm company) corporate headquarters in Tehran. Ross Perot spent his own money and hired a team of mercenaries to sneak in and rescue his people (see the movie, On the Wings of Eagles)

Ross Perot bought into GM and promised to turn their management and business around (that is what he does, takes failing businesses and revives em) His first order was to trim 30% of GM management as redundant and wasteful. Of course that didnt go over so GM wound up buying him out for $6 Billion dollars. and twenty years later had to be bailed out by the fed

He was almost there but about twenty years too early I think

ross perot was winning till he droped out the first time , then he droped out without a reason but changed his mind a month or so later . thenn he said he had droped out because his daughter had recieved some sort of threat . he did not get more disscribtive than that . after the they started with the cartoons .
geogre WALLACE was shot 4 years later in the 2 election that he ran in .NOT THE FIRST TIME .. I live it and was here then .
