I'm far too thick headed to have any answers save that career politicians are a club or confraternity with it's own language,rules and codes of conduct{don't get caught}anyone ever hear of term limits and DON'T VOTE FOR LAWYERS??
That's my point exactly.

Yes I know of term limits. It is kinda unfair tho. Why is it a president can only have 2 consecutive terms and a member of the legislative branch can serve till he is dead and burried? However, what you are asking for is that enough legislators vote against themselves. Kinda like asking me to vote a pay cut for myself. Going to be a real difficult sell. Don't know about the lawyers. Not sure it makes a difference.
