The original Constitutional committee did not get paid at all. They did not get per diem or MI&E or mileage. They were altruistic gentlemen with a grand experiment in mind. Some were so poor that they had to room with, and survive by the largess, of others. They were not career politicians. Some left farms and businesses at jeopardy from their absence. (Though I am not qualified to surmise) to them, “term limitations’ was not a concept which necessitated debate or consideration. They were men of honor and men of service. They were intelligent, thinking leaders who sought to divert the course of history to show that ALL men (and women) can be free to prosper (and fail) of their own accord.

Where do we find such men and minds in these times?
