Obama vs. Romney in the Marijuana Debate



Marijuana Legalization Should Be a Focus in 2012 Election by Ann Jackowitz

     In the upcoming November election the debate on marijuana legalization could prove to be an important issue for the presidential candidates...or will it? Both Obama and Romney would prefer to not discuss marijuana during their 2012 presidential campaigns, claiming it to "not be a priority". Well that's just a blatant lie because based on the voice of the people and the one's who will decide who gets to sit at the throne of The White House, it seems to very much be an important issue in the campaign. So I guess in regards to the two candidates it's not a matter of which one will benefit the marijuana legalization movement the most but rather which one will negatively affect it the least. 
     Obama was a recreational marijuana user as a teenager, and although he refers to those times as "wrong decisions" he at least consciously knows how good it feels to smoke and be stoned. Maybe just maybe he will get the urge again to spark one up in the Oval Office and legalize marijuana nationwide and everyone will be happy and merry...(I know it's a long shot but hey you never know, one can only wish). Obama has stated that he does support medical marijuana for disease and pain treatment however he has continued the crackdown on marijuana dispensaries in certain states that allow such businesses. He seems to be contradicting himself here. 
     Romney on the other hand says that his religion prohibits him from drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, or even consuming coffee or tea. Bruh you won't even drink coffee or tea, c'mon man! Romney states that he absolutely opposes marijuana legalization, even for medical purposes. Romney and his wife have admitted that they do drink hot chocolate and diet coke though, so they do have a little bit of a wild side...SMMFH! So in this regard I guess the candidate for us pro-marijuana legalization voters is unfortunately Obama. What about Schwarzenegger? Where the hell is he at? I'd vote for him all day!!
