Thus Spake Obama:
"At an online town hall meeting on March 26, 2009, Obama stated his official position on whether or not the legalization of marijuana would be an effective strategy for economic growth: "The answer is no, I don?t think that is a good strategy to grow our economy."Los Angeles Times: Obama Addresses Marijuana Questions... (March 26, 2009)1"
"When a voter asked Obama if he was for the legalization of medical marijuana, Obama said that he wasn't in favor of legalization without scientific evidence and tight controls. Citing his mother who died from cancer young, Obama compared marijuana to morphine saying there was little difference between the two.
"My attitude is if the science and the doctors suggest that the best palliative care and the way to relieve pain and suffering is medical marijuana then that's something I'm open to because there's no difference between that and morphine when it comes to just giving people relief from pain," Obama said. "But I want to do it under strict guidelines. I want it prescribed in the same way that other painkillers or palliative drugs are prescribed."
"When I was a kid I inhaled frequently. That was the point."

"he Obama administration's newly-released drug control strategy may set up a confrontation between the federal government and the state of California, if residents of the state pass a ballot initiative this year to legalize marijuana.
President Obama today released his administration's first National Drug Control Strategy, which sets up five-year goals for reducing drug use and the problems associated with it.
The strategy states that "this Administration firmly opposes the legalization of marijuana or any other illicit drug."
Where is the change?
Where is the hope for change?
