According to James Madison, a representative ought to be able to look after the long term interests of his country rather than his party's point of view or the popular opinion. Today's congressmen, unfortunately, do not look at the long term interests of their country, but are intent in ramming a 'progressive' socialist agenda down our throats. Senators and congressmen, with their patrician salaries (four times the average median salary), are hopelessly out of touch with the country. 264 of the senators and congressmen are lawyers, not exactly a mirror of American citizenry. The leaders of the people do not seem to have America's interests at heart. We need to pray that they don't lead us to complete destruction.
