I don't want to claim SCOTUS term limits would solve the entire activism problem but it is hard to argue that it wouldn't be a start. Just today I'm watching Rehnquist limp back to the office and I can't visualize the founders expecting the supremes to stay 'til the last dog has been hung. I'm just saying it's a decent first step to break this cycle of homesteading in DC. Fill in your own poster child here-------

I don't believe in term limits, but I might be agreeable to the idea of impeachment being voted on directly by the people by way of a national recall right.
As in the right to petition, referendum, and recall.

I believe that in this currently polarized Country, that the politicians are incapable of impeachment of anyone for anything, anywhere, anytime, short of outright murder, and even then I have my doubts.
