Jan. 9, 2014). It brings out younger voters, exposes which politicians get it and don't get it and those who don't get it will be left behind. The majority of registered voters support ending cannabis prohibition which is one of North America's worst policy failures in history. It becomes a litmus test exposing which politicians reflect their constituents and who disregards them. A sane or moral argument to continue caging responsible humans for using cannabis doesn't exist. Stan White Dillon, Colorado - --- MAP posted-by: Jo-D
