Make your case: re-elect your member of Congress?

With so many perplexing questions out there, we are turning to YOU for the answers. Each week, John King, USA asks you to weigh in on a hot debate and then air the best Make Your Case videos on Friday.

This week we asked if your member of Congress deserves to be re-elected?

Here are some of the answers:

Michele Harbin (Louisville, Kentucky.): "I do think my congressman should be reelected. I’m happy with what he’s been doing, and he’s staying connected to the community."

Chris Anastasiadis (Long Island, New York): "I don’t think that they should be reelected and I do think that they should be replaced by someone new and forward-thinking.

Lisa Fauth (St. Louis, Missouri): "I would be in favor of the congressman serving term limits like the president does. I feel like sometimes they get in there and they just stay way past their time."

Ron Dwyer (Bend, Oregon): "I’m against term limits. We have a pretty big country. We’ve got 300 million people here ... nobody with no experience at all is going to be able to govern this country."

Mike Maier (Corvallis, Oregon): "Both my representative and one of the senators are up for reelection this time ... I think they’re beginning to get some things through, and that’s very good, so yeah, I will vote for both of them again this time."

Nino LaRocca told iReport: "It is time to get some fresh blood in this Congress because you cannot have an incumbent there since the time of the Roman Empire."
