Change.org – Ideas for Changing America: Legalize the Medicinal and Recreational Use of Marijuana
I looked over at the sidebar widget and saw that our Change.org Idea for Legalization dropped to 1,074 votes! What?!? It was at over 8,800 last I checked!
Then I surfed over. Don’t panic, all is well. We’re at 10,749 votes, still the top-rated idea. The problem is they didn’t program their Flash widget to handle five digits – too many votes. We’ve overwhelmed them with “V10K”!
Surf over to Change.org and let’s push it up to “V20K” by the deadline, which is this Thursday @ 5:00PM Eastern.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
