I'm talking about weed not drugs in general. legalizing weed is good for the economy and the majority of the voters know it, and its showing at the polls.. if pot was legal across the board it would create over 100 thousand direct jobs and most likely hundreds of thousands of ancillary jobs. and billions in revenue... the prohibition of weed is a total joke, and cost the tax payers a lot of money for nothing in return.. more people smoke weed now than any time in the past and theirs more quality and quantities of weed to boot!!! that constitutes a total failure.. so you go ahead and believe what you want to believe. if a candidate for president says he or she wants to ramp up the war on weed will cook his or her goose before its even in the oven!!!
Why would women vote for Rand Paul, but not Huckabee? Both oppose abortion.
Millions of women are not one issue voters and abortion is low on their list of priorities. Wendy Davis found out in TX this year. Abortion is only one of many issues.

So, which gender related issues would keep women from voting for Huckabee?

Nixon started it, and Huckabee will put it on 2nd gear. I hope the CO pot shops didn't invest their life savings on those shops, because they'll be closing soon. Obama could close them right now, but he chooses not to.
Yep. Go against the will of the people in those states, and restrict the rights of the individual, and free enterprise. No thanks! I'd prefer candidates that support individual liberties, and will work to repeal bad laws.
I'd say the Justice Dept. and DEA allowing states to move forward with marijuana legalization in spite of federal laws is a huge step forward in ending the failure that is the War of Drugs. But more needs to be done. And although I disagree with him on just about everything else, I have to give Rand Paul credit for making white, conservative America aware of the devastating effects the WoD has had on minority communities. I really hope he keeps pounding that drum because it's going to take Republican leadership to end it. Dems can't do it without seeming soft on crime, and Republicans have the moral responsibility to do something since it was non other than the DEA and CIA under St. Reagan that really kicked it into high gear.
People here on CD love to go on about "urban" problems, and most of those problems can be directly linked to the War on Drugs, and the actions taken by the Nixon and Reagan administrations after the end of the Jim Crow era.
