It has been something like 20 years since Mark Sanford had a seat in the US House.
No one can deny the US House has destroyed it's integrity while becoming completely dysfunctional. They caused a fall in the USA Bond rating while insisting on instituting a sequester that had nearly crippled the US military. Decreasing the military budget was a good idea, but, not simply institute 'slash and burn."
I don't know how many times I stated the House is committing treason. The Tea Party extremists took the US House hostage. Just that simple. They assaulted the US Constitution with abuse of power afforded them in the Hastert Rule. They have caused economic deterioration and proved to slow the recovery in exponential measure. The more the House inhibited the economy the more the economy contracted. If it weren't for the emerging funding from the Recovery Act in the years after it's passage, the US economy would be far worse today.
I don't like the fact Mark Sanford left his wife and only is a part time father, but, he does have a handle on the misdeeds of the US House. He remembers when Congress functioned for the nation while still upholding conservative values. The economy soared during the years he served his district.
If Mark Sanford is willing to be a real person, a real Congressman without fear of retribution by his peers and constituency he is a very powerful person who can offer a sane voice to the debate of the GOP that now chronically imposes corruption and lies.
There is one thing about a democracy. Just one thing. The people understand freedom and fairness. If Mark Sanford is willing to be the voice of the sane people within his district to bring about a return to functional government, I would not overlook the potential of his ambitions to do so.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — “Though President Obama and I (click here) often disagree on how to reach outcomes, I think his address this evening underscored some themes that we do agree on, such as the need to expand economic opportunity and provide tools to better help workers prepare for retirement,” Sanford said. “I was also glad to see that the President invited a Charleston resident to tonight’s address. As a single mother who worked full-time while getting her education, Sabrina Simone Jenkins exemplifies the hard-working spirit of South Carolinians, and she deserves real credit for the way she has overcome obstacles. So while I was encouraged to hear that President Obama is focused on improving conditions for people like Sabrina, I’m troubled by the short-sighted approach this administration is taking to the problems facing our country. Ultimately, I don’t think the President is focusing on the right things, and a few thoughts struck me on that front.”
