Good luck with this
From the New York Times:
Cut farm subsidies. Yeah, that'll fly. But if does, I'm all for squashing the 22nd Amendment.

President Bush will seek deep cuts in farm and commodity programs in his new budget and in a major policy shift will propose overall limits on subsidy payments to farmers, administration officials said Saturday.Forget about spreading freedom throughout the world and ending evil for all time. Forget about reforming an entrenched social program. No, that all pales in comparison to this undertaking. Truly Bush does not understand the limits of human capabilities.
Such limits would help reduce the federal budget deficit and would inject market forces into the farm economy, the officials said.
