Marijuana could be Barack Obama’s secret weapon in this election

Even if President Obama doesn’t change his position on marijuana use, the writing is on the wall. People are fed up with the war on drugs, particularly when it comes to marijuana. It doesn’t matter whether you condone the use of marijuana or not, it’s about sensible laws. The time has come to end marijuana prohibition, not because we all want to light up, but because we should no longer accept wasting tax dollars on a failed drug war that incarcerates non-violent drug offenders. It’s pointless and it solves nothing.
