Can you name one of your three elected congressional representatives?
Yes, you have three - unless you live in the District of Columbia then you're surrounded by them.
Want to know who they are?
Senators: http://www.senate.gov/
House of Representatives: http://www.house.gov/
Once you know who they are, go check out some of their voting records. You may find some things you like, but I'll bet you find some things that make you mad. If you find your representatives to be foolish - stupid. Just remember: You may not be able to fix stupid, but you don't have to reelect it.
Then, once you're educated on your elected representation, see how long they've been in office.
If they have been there more than 8 years, I suggest you kick them out. Serving in Congress was never meant to be a job or a lifestyle. Did you ever ask the question - How did Ted Kennedy stay in our Senate for all those years? Wow!
After someone has been lavished with the kind of benefits our "American Royalty" receive, they've pretty much lost touch with the real society. If they have been there more than 4 years, get someone warming up in the bull pen.
8 Then Vacate.
