Re: Okay -- but . . .

Your listed example is an example of further limits, in my opinion good ones, but certainly not in the opinion of others.

Term Limits are not a Limit on Democracy any more than any of these other limits are...Term limits would simply be an additional eligibility requirement: If you already served 3 terms in the Senate...then sorry, you're ineligible...Run for President, dog catcher, or some other position if you want to stay in public service.

Here, you seem to mince words, which will not detract from the fact that term limits have already limited the people's democratic choice to have someone they would believe capable to run a third term, perhaps several terms, as president of these United States.
