As I said, I DO NOT support term limits either. And many in the Democratic Party don't either. But we DO support changing the guard in Washington that is so damn corrupt now, that includes BOTH parties (including the DLC part of the Democratic Party). We want to get rid of barriers that prevent us from getting those choices that those in both parties want to keep us from getting. And the uninformed Republican base feels that same frustration with corruption, but unlike Dems channel it in to wanting just to get rid of experienced politicians in Washington in general (which the corporatists will gladly replace with more lobbyist corrupted newbies), not getting rid of those parts of society that make the "experienced" pols corrupt. We want to empower the democratic institutions that throws the bums out and replaces them with those that work for US! Pols like Elizabeth Warren, whether they are politically "experienced" or not! If we ignore them for their "inexperience" now, when can we ever get newer ideas and leadership for them in Washington?
