Sorry m8, I'm afraid you're a little misinformed on our Democratic Republic. Presidents CAN do something about it. :jointsmile: Considering that the DEA, not to mention EVERY law enforcement agency, is part of the executive branch of government. Therefore, they answer to the president who can do something. Our government works like this: Legislative branch (that's Congress) passes legislation (laws); the Executive branch (that's President, VP, etc.) enforces the laws passed by the Legislative branch; Judicial branch (that's the courts) is in charge of interpreting the laws. So basically, the President is the head honcho of ALL law enforcement, from the cops that patrol the streets, to the DEA that oh so loves to ignore MMJ laws.
