Do term limits increase political polarization & reduce effectiveness? For 25+ yrs ideological & opportunistic divides worsened. McConnell reelected to 3rd Senate term, Graham 4th! Dems too. Reinstate modified term limits. Improve equitable accountability. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_limits_in_the_United_States
Citizens United must be overturned. Implement campaign financing reforms, expand size of SCOTUS, include lifetime term limits (20?) & all federal bench (10-15 yrs?), reinstate ABA assessment consideration & minimum qualifications.
POTUS, Senate & House candidates must qualify for security clearances prior to election. Same w key WH staff.

Different ideologies are needed for a healthy democracy. But compromised, felonious, conspiracy theorists & proponents of political assassinations are disqualifiers.
Psych eval summaries of fitness for office should be released by expert impartial panels. Need mandatory release of 5 yrs complete tax returns (whether being audited or not).

The people can choose to elect sociopaths, bigots, lobbyists & criminals.

First we've a right to know.
Unfortunately, a profit driven "free press" in our polarized environment can't best mass communicate comprehensive factual candidate profiles & questioning until it's too late. A democracy can't flourish if voters are un- or misinformed.
