the entire term limits paradigm is misguided. it started on a premise that no one running for office could possibly do so out a sense of public responsibility and has been a self-fulfilling prophecy. it's guaranteed the result it was supposed to solve.

What you are saying makes no sense. Term limits arent to blame for the political issues that we are experiencing. The issue that it could help solve in Congress is we wouldn't have career Congressmen who become entrenched in office and become far too influential, far more than their one vote is supposed to be.
