Term limits?

Dr. Pipes,

Any comments on "term limits" for the Washington bureaucracy as a counter measure to the sinister Washington "Deep State"? I mean by term limits that those working for the federal government in Washington should have a, let us say, 8 years of serving in the government and then they must move on.

And no more an FBI chief, as in the case of J Edgar Hoover, being in charge for 48 years.
