Then Reagan was elected in 1981 and laid down the gauntlet. Drug incarcerations were @ 50k when Reagan took office and we're @ 400k when he left.

So Nixon said war on drugs, but ended up decriminalizing pot, as did Carter, then Reagan came in and actually waged the war on drugs.

Crocket is correct, you are not (no offense).

Saying something (Nixon) is different than doing it (Reagan). I can say that i can turn water into gold but unless I do it, it doesn't mean shit.
