The Cookout

[Real One]

Politics is something I don't really do that well with, but it doesn't mean I don't follow some of it. I find it weird that so much of the senate, congress, and so on, are often crazy old, like 60s-80s or so. And honestly, I think we should put an age limit on it. We already have it set to where you have to be at least 35 years old to be able to run for the presidency, at the very least, we should put a cap on when a person can run for office.

Do you think that should happen? I think the government should be for the youngins and not the old white men out there who do nothing but break things. Maybes it's time we limit them to the age of 50 or something. If you're older than that, get out of the senate, congress, and any other seat in government.

I think there shouldn’t be a cutoff age but there should be term limits. You should only be allowed to serve one or two terms and there should be limits to the # of a given profession…it shouldnt be a bunch of lawyers, there should be engineers, teacher‘e scientists, etc.

This is where Im at with it too. I don’t think it’s good to be ageist about it. Better to make sure that we keep a fresh supply of individuals with term limits.

That's way better than my idea. But yeah, I agree. Term limits for everyone, and maybe once done with one term limit you have to focus on other aspects of government. Maybe it can be a checklist of things you can do, but you have a limit of being able to do them based on the term limits. And yeah, definitely including people from all walks of life and careers/skills.
