I don't share your pessimism. In a year's time MMJ will have continued to gain public support, and any serious candidate is going to have to become somewhat moderate, at least a hands-off attitude as Obama claimed he would have in 2008.

This is also assuming that if Obama doesn't win, it's going to be (insert ignorant Republican mouthpiece here)? That was my point exactly. We are a year away from the election, but the candidates and the outcome is already decided?

All that's left to do is fill in the details so that another election can play out in the same predictable manner that it has for the last half-century. When we allow those in power to frame the debate, the only debate that takes place is between false opponents who work together to engender more power for themselves.
