Embattled Michigan Rep. John Conyers announced his decision Tuesday to retire from Congress as he faced down new allegations of groping.
'I am retiring today. And I want everyone to know how much I appreciate the support, the incredible undiminished support I’ve received across the years,' Conyers told Michigan radio host Mildred Gaddis.
Even as he faces an Ethics investigation and growing calls to quit, Conyers endorsed his son, John Conyers III, to succeed him in the Detroit-based congressional seat.
Proof we need term limits.
John Conyers III running for Congress is nepotism.

You can't un-legislate stupidity.
Term Limits are blue laws for politics. An infantlization of the electorate. It is saying not only are you too stupid to decided to drink on Election Day, you are equally too stupid to vote, since you re-elect the same people over and over."

True. People should be informed, but sadly many are not.
