Campaign themes

The following issues were listed on Culler's campaign website. For his full campaign platform, .

“
  • Constitutional Amendment on Term Limits: I do not have an interest in a becoming a career politician which can clearly be seen in my legislative plan that centers on one primary objective – a Constitutional Amendment on Term Limits for the House and Senate! I believe such an incredible accomplishment will have a major impact in creating a more efficient and dutiful federal government as well as help return control to The People.
  • Law Enforcement Reform: Looking at how my family was destroyed by corrupt law enforcement/elected government officials, it should be easy to see and believe my vested and heartfelt interest in this issue. For the naysayers that think this is just campaign talk and promises I ask you to closely look at the picture of my youngest daughter Alexandra and the fear on her pretty little five year old face. This is a campaign promise you can believe.
  • Civil Asset Forfeiture: My view on civil asset forfeiture? It makes THIEVES out of law enforcement! It is one of the most asinine scams of government corruption against the people that’s ever been devised! Only those devoid of ethics and decency would advocate for such a twisted travesty of justice. It reminds me of thugs in third world countries as it immeasurably sets back relations for the law enforcement community and the people they claim to “serve and protect”.
  • Marriage – One Man & One Woman: I’m a simple one man, one woman, Holy matrimony type of candidate. It’s the way of nature as well as my Christian Faith. I would gladly support any measure to reverse the Supreme Court’s ruling on same sex “marriage”.
  • Foreign Aid: My model on foreign aid is borrowed from Santa Claus! I say we make a new list each year of the countries asking for presents from us and only give to those countries on the “Nice” list. If you harbor terrorists that are hell-bent on harming our country and citizens then you will not even receive coal from us. (Or burnt potatoes!)
