wtf kinda stupid statement is that?

If one of the insane GOP runners said they would legalize marijuana, would you vote for them?

Aren't there more important issues than whether or not you can get high legally?

it doesnt matter who you guys vote for, in the end they work for the same people. the president imo is control by a higher power. just my opinion.

There is no point in spending billions or however much they spend on locking up marijuana smokers, people will just do it anyway and they are creating an illegal market which causes more serious crimes.

It is the wrong mindset to vote for the 'lesser evil' to prevent the republican candidate or whatever nothing will change that way. Ron Paul is the only candidate that isn't just a prostitute for the scum that really makes the decisions behind the scenes, but because of that he will never get elected as you know the house always wins. I saw through Obama and all his empty rhetoric right from the start his words were too sweet and it was obvious he was just making people feel good with the best propaganda campaign ever seen.

I think in general it's just very difficult to get anything done in American politics. I mean the republicans even held up the bill for rape victims for ages. This is just how things work in the USA. It's a shitty political system and that's why the late George Carlin had his whole rant about why he doesn't vote and why that means he's the only one who gets to complain. Until you Americans get off your ass and protest en masse dare I say it... the way the French do... you will never see any changes.

Politics in the USA will be bought and paid for by the big companies. The parties with both pander to their base and use scare tactics to make them afraid to vote for the wrong party. It's not much different in Canada really except that we have a few more parties to choose from so we hear more than just one or two points of view on most issues. That and we quite often have votes on conscience on major issues which allow MP's to vote how they truly feel rather than with any party politics affiliation.

Obama knows he doesn't have to be a for real liberal because he'll get puke called by everyone on the left come election day.

the scum that make the real decisions are the general public as well. Im sure if 90% of america wanted weed legalised then obama would fistpump double chairspin campaign on getting it legalised.

double chairspin rofl

I'm glad you said "..double chairspin campaign on getting it legalised." instead of "he'd legalize it" like many americans seem to think the government works..

Yes, which is exactly why getting high legally is so important. Let me explain - we're in a huge budget crisis, ridiculous debt, etc. Legalizing cannabis would generate billions in tax revenue and reduce billions in wasted drug war dollars. That's tens of billions of dollars that can go to things like drug abuse treatment, drug abuse prevention, schools, national parks, health care, etc. Things that we're currently cutting money away from could be funded by people getting high. The crazy thing is that those people are getting high right now and will continue to get high no matter how many times you tell them not to, as his been the tradition in human history. So we can either make it illegal and spend shitloads of money on arresting the criminals we create, or we can legalize it and use the revenue to repair our communities and improve the standard of living for everybody. Then no more lives need to be ruined by a criminal record just because a little weed was found. Research on medical uses of cannabis would explode and new treatments would be found. People could grow their own medicine and save money on health care costs. I can go on. There's a lot of good that comes from fixing this issue, it's not just about getting high.
