Pump-your-breaks for a second. Legalization is one thing, but screwing over children is another. There are alot of childern who trully need this. Chill.

The No Child Left Behind Act is a bureaucratic nightmare. The Department of Education has just about doubled to administer the benchmark scores. Idealistically, No Child Left Behind is a helpful piece of legislation. Realistically, it costs too much to maintain on a national level with too many hands in the cookie jar.

BTW, even though Ron Paul would disband the DEA and federal drug laws, the individual states would decide the criminality of certain substances. So, if you happen to live in the Bible Belt or Utah don't bring your bongs out of hiding any time soon.

if you actually believe this man is going to be president then you really are lost

[Jouryokujin]

Mike Gravel also wants to legalize marijuana...I think people that frequent this forum would agree with his policies moreso than Paul's, but this is just a guess. He has an equally horrible chance of becoming president though, which is unfortunate.

[Nebraskan]

Paul's chances are way better than Gravel's. He raised 2.5 million dollars last quarter. That is 4th or 3rd for the Republicans. Just a few days ago he raised 75K in one day. That is a record for his campaign and it happened recently.

yeah, after hearing so much about ron paul, i looked more into him and his views, i'll vote for him... i hope he wins and stays true

[Greenie Girl]

My bad, I was unaware Mike Gravel was for legalization when I made this thread. After researching Gravel I think he would make a great president, but Ron Paul would bring about more positive changes.

This is not really directed to King of The World, but to everybody who, in frustration, can only see fit to put out one liners of doom when anybody gets excited about change.

I would like to gently point out that that was not a very nice thing to say to somebody who is seeking change. The status quo is created solely by naysayers. Oppressors have always used the inertia of the oppressed against them. They don't really have to do the oppressing. By doing nothing we are keeping ourselves chained.

Even if the good doctor's chances are slim, his supporters are the people that raise the level of debate among the citizenry. Shitting on activists is worse, in my view, than being a rotten, pocket-lining politician. At least they have a reason ($$$) for their actions or lack thereof. If you don't believe miracles can happen, do a Google search for Senator Jeff Smith, or watch the documentary about him. You will see that sometimes grassroots efforts succeed...certainly more often than doing nothing.
