Elect those willing to serve the nation

To the editor:
President Barack Obama and the U.S. Congress, in their quest for power, have failed the 50 states and the We The People government.
The in-street fighting in Garland, Texas, is the beginning of further chaos. The Congress was warned, years ago, that the First Amendment needed clarification as to the term 'religion' to prevent violent warring factions from using the term 'religion' to take over the nation.
They have violated their oath of office in rebellion against the U.S. Constitution and failed to enforce the nation's laws.
For the nation to prosper in safety, the elections of our representatives must be for those willing to serve the good of the nation and not for fame for self and re-elections. Term limits are a must.
