I personally believe marijuana should be legal but if he or any PUSA openly pushed for leglization he would be defined as "pro drug" and raked across the coals. He would drop at least 10 points in the polls for attempting to legalize a vice. Do you really think most of these politicians care about pot and prostitution? There is too much to risk by sticking your neck out.
A new Mason-Dixon poll finds that three forths of all Democrats think that state laws on medical marijuana should be respected. And two thirds of Republicans think the same thing.
It makes no sense to continue our federal drug policies when it hasn't reduced use, it's been used as an excuse to put a staggering number of blacks in prison breaking up countless families, it's cost us billions, and it has resulted in Mexico turning into a narco-state largely run by drug cartels, destabilizing our southern border.
Between the taxes that could be raised by legalization, and what could be cut in enforcement and incarceration, ending this idiotic policy of the safest drug ever consumed by man could reduce the deficit by a third, and that's not counting all the industrial uses hemp can be used for.
The time has come on this issue. Legalize it.
By changing this one policy, Obama would win the youth vote, hands down. The best part, is that it wouldn't require Obama to do anything. He just needs to stop cracking down the medical marijuana.

Liberals and there half ass policies...
into the Presidential election discussion.
All the problems this country is facing both here and around the world and you think the President should give priority to legalizing a stupid drug?????
It's easy to see why your priorities are so screwed up. Mainly, the time you spend on your little toy.
It's getting more difficult by the day to take any of your comments seriously when you post something like this.
Right wing nuts would accuse him of arranging White House weed party's and inviting pimps/drug dealers etc. Anyone remember the brouhaha about having a black president and everyone being forced to eat collard greens and water-melons.

I'm not talking anout whether weed should or shouldn't be legal.
Drug policy is a method of repression. The FDA will tell you what drugs to use and what food to eat.
