Just getting ready for a constitution convention.

1. did you leave out a word? I am not following your question?

3. Get elected for a 6yr term vs 2 terms at 4yrs.

[MiniMe]

13. You still have to get reelected to that 2nd 4-year term

Ask HW Bush. Also, Senate terms are 6 years, so one group of Senators would always coincide with the Presidential Election, that could be good or bad, not sure. I don't like the idea, jmho

2. I wouldn't support...

...a 6 year term. In fact I don’t want anyone jacking with the Constitution at all.

11. I do.

I want it ammended for two reasons. First, to counter the CU decision by Roberts and second, to put limits on the President's pardon powers.

Times change and our Constitution needs to adapt to some degree. The process is a difficult one for good reasons but especially for my first reason is vital to our survival as a freeish country, imo.

12. I would add to that list the equal rights act

[tazkcmo]

14. Good call

That's first.

4. I see what problem you are going at, but I disagree with your solution.

I think, you are trying to tackle that US politics are living from election-cycle to election-cycle and a longer term could ensure that Congress and WH have more time to actually work.

I see the following problems with your solution:
- This would mean too much time without accountability to voters. Six years is a lot.
- A President could do something similar to what Putin did with Medvedev: Get elected for a term, install a lackey for the second term, run again for the third term, maybe even get your lackey to run for the fourth term.



My suggestion would be simple: Restrict candidate-ads to 2 months before the election.

[CK_John]

5. You would need a constitution convention to do that.

[DetlefK]

8. A constitutional convention would be needed to limit campaign-ads???

[Demsrule86]

10. A law passed by Congress that meets constitutional standards would suffice. The last thing we want

is a constitutional convention which could end our Republic.

[Trueblue Texan]

15. My fear EXACTLY!

[Demsrule86]

16. Mine too.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

6. Only if the Presidential Limo is made self-driving. Nt

7. You have to move on to the Elon Musk's Boring Company.
