Hello Aaron,

Term limits deny the people the opportunity to elect the candidate
of their choice.

The late Paul Wellstone, who was US Senator from Minnesota, told
his supporters how to win elections - "Organize, organize, organize!"

It had nothing to do with term limits, as members of Congress
have no term limits.  If people want to elect a candidate to office,
the best way to do so is to "Organize! Organize! Organize!"

US Senator Kamala Harris ran for the Democratic nomination.
Her run did not last long.  Why not?  Because she had the most
disorganized campaign manager who she could possibly have hired.
Even though she had opened strong, it was all downhill from there.
Not because Joe Biden or any other candidate was better than her.

The people have every right to vote for the candidate of their
choice.  Term limits would deny the people their right to do so.
An incumbent with a job approval rating of 90 percent having to
leave office due to term limits is just plum nuts.

I am fine by whoever the American people choose as president.
Same by whoever the people of a state choose as governor.  Or for
any election - local, state, or national.

If the people like who they have now, why should they be denied
the opportunity to re-elect that same person to the same office?

The choice as to who to serve should always be left to "we the people"
- not by any other group (or individual).

>Or, with a little luck, we'd get a good Republican governor instead.

Elections are like clockwork.  Happens every four years (for governor
of NY).  As such, Republicans will have their chance in the next
scheduled election.  Unless the incumbent declares martial law or
some other kind of nonsense.

Well, if that's what the people want, their wish is his command ...
