| Message | No it doesn't. It leads to governments not being in for long enough to make a difference. And oh yes - I don't remember you going after a policy like this when you were winning. Predictable.... |

| Message | OOC: The reason I want this is to make the game more exciting. You've seen yourself that things barely change between most elections, and it gets very boring when the same people are winning over and over again (yes, that includes when I was winning). If we reduce the term then the gameplay will be better. |
