What Presidential Candidate do you think will best protect our MMJ once in office?
I have seen just about every Democrat come out and say that they will not allow the DEA to continue on the path that they have been on here in California. I am just curious as to what candidate everyone thinks will be the one to make a difference for us. Please do not answer the obvious Ron Paul.

Mike Gravel was probably the dems best bet, I think assuming that any of the other candidates would make a "half assed" attempt is assuming alot. They know that they can just make an empty promise to the constituants that support MMJ, because most of them are un-informed much like any other cross section of America, and most of them generally vote democrat if and when they vote. Not to mention the fact that most of them won't even remember what any of these candidates said in or before the primaries.

The president can't *DO* anything bout it.....it has to come down from the DEA and Surgen General......even Congress can't *DO* anything about it. The DEA and Surgen General have to change its classification catagory.

I don't believe that any of them could do a damn thing. Yes, I like Ron Paul too (b/c of his Libertarian values of small government and personal freedoms) however even if he was voted in he'd have one hell of a time fighting congress and everyone else. The checks and balances would tear him apart.
And thats sad.

And finally someone that is making sense! Thank you Steve.
And by the way, just because I don't think Richardson would be the "best" doesn't indicate a lack of research. As far as I know Richardson is not for "decriminalization". I think if you did some research you may amaze yourself. The meer fact that any candidate says they will or will not make the DEA do something shows some insincerity in the answer, and it also is insulting to your intelligence if you believe it. It needs to be re-scheduled from where it is now, a Schedule 1 considered in the same regard as heroin. Until that happens nothing will change on the federal level.

Ron Paul is the only choice. There's no longer Dem/Rep parties, it's a fabricated. Ron Paul is THE only choice. If we do not get this man into office, then we keep seeing the DEA raids on us!
Vote Ron Paul if you really wanna legalize it.
Watch this though

You just don't get it..... NO ELECTED OFFICIAL CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT LEGALIZING WEED.
It can *ONLY* be done by the DEA and the Surgen general.... THEY have to change its classification or remove it from the list.
Please do a little homework

Of course elected officials can. Congress are the lawmakers, our state and federal congress can repeal laws also.
The DEA and Surgeon General do not make laws, so how could they change them?

<sigh> Like I said.... do your homework. Go back to about 1963 when Coke, Heroin, MJ and a bunch of other "street" drugs were classified as having *no medicinal value* and no more research could be done on them. The classification system was set up so that individual drugs could have their classification changed without literally requiring an act of congress.
The DEA and Surgen General have to change the clasification of MJ *BEFORE* it can be legalized.
