Ben Carson wants to see term limits for both members of Congress and for federal judges — including Supreme Court justices.
“Our system was actually designed for citizen statesmen and not for career politicians,” he said. To achieve this, it would likely take a Convention States, the retired neurosurgeon told TheBlaze, because Congress is never going to do it.
Thankfully, the Founding Fathers gave the people a way to bypass Congress. Article V of the U.S. Constitution allows 34 states to call for a Convention of States to consider specific constitutional reforms.
“But it probably will at some point need to be done, not only for our elected members of Congress but also I think for federal judges, Supreme Court justices.”
Fifteen states are already on board with the Convention of States movement.
