At age 77, I agree strongly with your position. We need young blood to hopefully lead the nation out of the ditch the politicians have put us in.

Thanks for that! Wasserman is one of the more vocal Israelites in Congress. Her good buddy Brian Mast wore his IDF uniform in Congress on October 8, 2023, probably a first.

In last years primary election, the guy who ran against Mast did some research regarding how much money from stocks each congressman makes, and ranked them. One would think Nancy Pelosi would be #1 in that regard, but she was only 4. Number 2 on the list was Brian Mast. I don't know where Wasserman was, but it was probably high on the list.

The age concern goes away in large part if you have term limits.

I'm all for it.

Term limits will not happen because they are not in the Constitution, duh.

Sure they are, for the Executive Branch it is thanks to Congress putting it in citing the reason was corruption under FDR.

So, there is no corruption in Congress?

Indeed, I've been calling for term limits for Congress for nearly 25 years.
Since Congress makes the laws they will not allow term limits for themselves. But we do know that they enthusiastically, call for term limits on the SCOTUS or expanding the members of SCOTUS.
