    Term limits have been implemented in many places and have not achieved better governance anywhere. They’re another “obvious” solution that isn’t worth shit in practice, like multi-party versus two-party electoral systems.

    And age limits are just anti-democratic. I know a few old farts who are better qualitified to hold office than their younger rivals. Voters should choose, not some arbitrary rule.

      Multi party systems do work better than whatever 18th century excuse for a system the US has come up with.
