Currently, our politicians at the federal level are voting on issues that do not impact them. When they vote on health care, their jobs are not impacted by the decisions they make about it. They vote on whether or not to give themselves a raise? What other jobs out there conduct themselves in this manner? We should vote for whether or not they're doing the kind of job that would warrant a raise. Social security does not impact them in any way. They need to be impacted by what they're voting on. We need to make our politicians realize they're public servants. They need to stop only serving themselves, and start serving us again.

the President has term limits , Congress has term limits : Why Not The Supreme Court?

Candidates that "flat-out lie!" should be penalized! We do not need a LIAR in the White House. Falsehoods need to be corrected!

I do not even have provide reasons why Citizens United is the ultimate of WRONG; it is glaringly obvious why this needs to be repealed. It should never have been approved by the Supreme Court. It just goes to show how corruption has wormed its way through our entire system. REPEAL CITIZENS UNITED

Elected officials need to serve for a six (6) year period with no re-election. This would effect all Federal and State officials and after they have served, they would go back into the private sector with NO retirement and/or health benefits. They would serve for the public good. We need to have sensible people who care more about our country and less about making a carreer in politics.
