I agree with everything you propose. Regarding term limits, an excellent, way overdo idea, but I don't see that happening, ever. Reducing the size of the Government is also impossible. I don't mean to sound negative but you are talking about ideas that require an informed and involved electorate to enact. We have anything but that and those elected have little interest in these ideas. We will continue to expand our already bloated, inefficient government that is help captive by special interest groups.

Those lawyers do like their creative writings.

I also agree to the importance of preservation of the writings of our Constitution. I do not believe it is a living document that changes as moods or fads drift through our society.

Big government is paramount in this cultural struggle. I believe we should reduce the federal government and emphasis state rights. I have my choices but 1) would you shrink the federal government? 2) in what manner such as eliminating agencies etc.? 3) what important functions would you preserve at the federal level?
