Thursday's Thought for the Day....

So, here's a thought or perhaps a radical idea. 
Let's stop all this election nonsense. 
Let's limit campaigning to just six weeks before the election, as they do in Britain. 
No more rallies. No more touring the country for years and years, away from your elected office.
You want to get out your message? Post it on your website. Let people look it up. Tweet it, post it on Instagram or Facebook.
How about elected officials actually do the job we sent them to do instead of spending all their time campaigning for the next election.
If I remember my history correctly, the Founding Fathers saw elected office as service, not a lifetime career. They envisaged people serving in government for a limited time, then going  back to their homes and jobs.
I'm just saying....
