I don't think he was light on the issue of legalization of marijuana. http://www.marijuana.com/democratic-candidates/33961-sen-joe-biden.html So that's not really in our favor I don't think.

That may sound good to constituents but that's the very thing that perpetuates the prohibition. When politicians pursue "values" like 'zero tolerance' and 'get tough on drugs' without considering whether those goals even hold any benefit to society and without taking into account the consequential social harms that pursuing those goals create, then all they achieve is to create misery where there should be no misery and criminals where there should be innocent people.

Obama was upfront on how centrist he was all during the campaign. He could not have gotten elected without running down the center of the road. Hillary would have been the president. Ron Paul was the only true non-prohibition candidate ('cept Mike Gravel). He was upfront (as was Mike) about the drug war failure on national TV. We should have all voted for him. Rep. Paul was the only person to accurately predict the economic collapse long before it happened. Why can't we see the duping of America by the bank controlled politicians? They are truly the ones keeping a discussion of the correct fixes for our problems at bay. One more time for the "Same Old Wine in a Brand New Bottle" song. Thanks Loggins and Messina!

It's more a medical issue for me, but still. It's ridiculous! I, for one am ready to march!!! Any takers? In my opinion the vast majority that took time to talk about a ridiculous prohibition just got spat on by our new administration!!! So much for open government.
