Repeal 22nd Amendment?

NY Representative Jose Serrano has introduced H.J. Resolution 5 that would repeal the 22nd Amendment restricting Presidents to only two terms. This ridiculous proposal shows, once again, what is happening in America with regard to these career, entrenched politicians and their lack of touch with WE THE PEOPLE. Serrano is but another of the entrenched that must be removed from office. I would propose this as an alternative. How about the repeal of the 17 Amendment instead? Repeal of 17 would break up the power of the lobbyist forever, giving control of the Senate back to the States, where it was intended by the Founders to be. This alone, would solve many of the problems in the federal government. I would propose the States convene and, as a unified body, declare the sovereignty of the States as granted by the Constitution and at the same time retake control of the federal government by repealing the 17th Amendment. Texas, Utah and Montana have already taken the first steps in this direction. Wake up America and follow through.
