Hmm...I would be hesitant about extending terms while eliminating the chance for re-election. What you're proposing is a perfect cash grab scenario. Once they get in, they have no incentive against acting purely in their own interest, given that they can't get reelected anyway, and a long window of time within which to respond... Seems like inviting disaster...
So you think that a two year term is not wasteful ?
A House congressman will spend half their time fighting elections
And senators get 6 years, where's the logic there ?
IMO, House congressmen, senators and the president/vice-president should all serve 4 (or maybe 5) years.
