9th District Congressional Candidate says Term Limits are a No-Brainer.

 Ben Franklin said it and so does Tom Guleff

   

Memphis , TN. February 6, 2006—Money and influence-buying was a worry to Ben Franklin and the founding fathers and it continues to be a hot topic in the 9th District today.  9th District Congressional Candidate Tom Guleff announced today that he formally commits to a policy of no more than 3 terms as a representative, that’s six years in the House of Representatives.  

There’s good reason that term limits were favored by the founding fathers and its called corruption and abuse of power.  “We’ve got to get these politicians into a 12-step program and off the addictive perks of power.”  The argument that government business requires some level of experience is bunk.  Government is way too involved in its citizen’s life. Government is bigger than ever with more lobbyists, lawyers, bureaucrats and staffers all having their hands in the till. Tom Guleff states, “If I’m elected I want to know there is a term limit and therefore I’ll get in there and do the will of the people and move on out.” He will sign a pledge to this effect and sends out the challenge to all candidates to make the same commitment. It’s a no-brainer. There are no term limits for Castro. There were no term limits for Sadaam Hussein.  These are big, bad examples of why term limits are important. “Let’s not stop there, because we have some great examples of why we need them in this town”, commented Mr Guleff.  Shelby County Chancery Court has ruled that term limits are constitutional. 

 Tom Guleff  as a running candidate has come out hard against the status quo.  Term limits is just one issue that must change.
