This week we look at the argument in favor of term limits for congressional reps and presidents. Those who support term limits often raise the argument that term limits can help prevent career politicians, or those who remain in office for a very long time. 

The concern that many of these supporters raise is that career politicians can become more concerned with retaining their position than they are with serving their constituents. The argument is that by enacting a set time limit for service, this will remove the incentives to embed themselves in the political system, and help them focus on serving the American people.
