MPP to Giuliani, McCain, Romney: Prove It, or Stop Lying
along with birdgirl and datkrak, we need to push your congressmen/women to support/write pro legalization bills. I'm wondering if anyone has a basic template or something that could be aval...anywho thats a problem, the other being people dont vote! hardly anybody does. and vote not just for prez and vp, but congress and senators, gov, and local politicans too. If a mayor of townX in America is for legalization, they have a bit more political sway than average joe.
the government is a beast which needs to be attacked from all sides

You'll see the results on the internet, but where else? Regardless, I hope your right, Markass.

I don't believe for a second that a President who's pro-cannabis means the laws would change. The President doesn't enact or revise legislation by himself. With luck, perhaps he could begin changing ideas and attitudes, but even that would be a long, tough process.
however birdgirl, I see a pro-cannabis president being the only hope that this country has for legalizing marijuana; someone that high up to spread positive ideas about marijuana, and how the current war on drugs is failing miserably..
1. Marijuana arrests are at record highs, progressively increasing over the years to over 760,000 marijuana arrests last year, I believe close to 90% were for possession only..
2. Marijuana is readily available in every city in the united states, and is more potent than it ever has been
3. There is more marijuana available on the streets than ever before.
Someone to bring light to everybody that this is what our drug war is achieving is what we need...And he's the one :stoned:
Plus not only will he possibly keep me out of jail, he'll keep me out of Iraq which ultimately means that this man could possibly save my life

A step forward is what it is. Why be afraid to pursue what you believe is fact when all else is bullshit to begin with? A lot of people are fed up with the manipulation and ignorance of facts. I think everyone is.
The issue goes beyond politics and into economics, society, and religion. There are heavy impacts that will affect the medical corporations, the psychological impact of society as a whole, and the religious history and the perception of the present religious elite.
I say, let's begin.
