Sir, You are clear headed, principled, reasoned, and systemically thinking voter. I think this makes you an exception.

The campaign strategies used today involve polarizing the electorate, then further narrowing down the electorate to a small demographic to fight over that decides the election. Ultimately this makes it so most voters have an issue they are going to the mattresses over, and think the sky is falling over. This of course keeps the self-licking icecream cone going.

As a supporter of term limits, my question is how do we get more people to think like you / this?
