1. There should be -- but there ALSO should be...

...a requirement for a two-thirds vote for confirmation. Make it impossible for the majority party to ram through a lackey.

[Algernon Moncrieff]

4. I'd go 3/5, but otherwise agree

Also, up or down vote within 90 days of submission.

2. 20 years

1) 5 presidential terms is enough
2) The way it is now, neither party is incentivized to pick the most experienced, wisest jurist; they pick the youngest judge they can get away with.

3. Should rbg be term limited out ?

5. Absolute term limits for all positions at all levels of government.

Lifetime terms only breed corruption and abuse of power.

6. Not...

… unless the People can vote them up-or-down every 10-20 years. Term Limits is not the problem. End the Electoral College. End gerrymandering. Make it easy for everyone to vote in every election. End the Term Limits for President... the People should have the right to keep an FDR, when one comes along.

7. Yes

If only to keep all the 80+ year olds off the court. Too old and out of touch with modern issues. Don't get me wrong, I loved my grandparents, but I wouldn't want them anywhere near the SCOTUS. We need people on the SCOTUS who still have a stake in the game so to speak.
