I guess you weren't paying attention in high school Civics.
Under the Constitution, and the reason no broad based appeal to legalize has reached the Supreme Court is that the original Marihuana Tax Act, and all other statutes regarding Cannabis are Constitutionally irrelevant.
The issue has ALWAYS been about "State's Rights".
Obama is the first president since Jimmy Carter to attempt to let a little sanity into the Fed's position.
Of course, he ran into a brick wall of opposition from the DEA and every other government and corporate entity that saw this costing them money.
Follow the money.
Oh, that's right. You get paid to do this.
I don't profit a single penny from ANYTHING marijuana related and I work hard for my money.
But given your stern stance and unwillingness to call things how they are written ... I question whether you are.
And don't tell me that marijuana is a state right. Then why are people STILL going to FEDERAL prison for marijuana? Why are Medical Marijuana facilities STILL being raided by federal agents? It wont be a state right until Cali along with other states decide to legalize it themselves.
