The 28th Amendment to the US Constitution

The other day, an older gentleman came into the restaurant I work in and I struck up a conversation (I do that quite often. I try and speak to every "table" in my restaurant at some point during their meal). In the course of talking I mentioned that I'd posted a suggestion for an amendment to the US Constitution. During the course of his meal...I ended up talking to him for more than an hour, on and off (I did have to work) we argued back and forth and up and down. When it was all said and done, I had his email address and sent him my proposal. Scroll down for my original post, or just read here.

A Simple Proposal

I hereby propose the following as the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution.

1. No citizen of the United States shall be elected to the House of Representatives to more than four (4) consecutive, two (2) year terms to office.

2. No citizen of the United States shall be elected to the United States Senate for more than two (2) consecutive, six (6) year terms of office.

3. No citizen of the United States shall receive any retirement benefits from serving in either the United States House of Representatives or the United States Senate.

4. Congress shall not exempt itself from any laws of the United States of America, in whole or in part.

Here is it...the gentleman's name? J. P. Bender, an interesting man who does some writing on his own...to read more of this work, hit the title for a link to his home site, or cut and paste this:
