"I believe marijuana should be illegal in our country. It is the pathway to drug usage by our society, which is a great scourge -- which is one of the great causes of crime in our cities. And I believe that we are at a state where, of course, we are very concerned about people who are suffering pain, and there are various means of providing pain management. And those that have had loved ones that have gone through an end of life with cancer know the nature of real pain. I watched my wife's mom and dad, both in our home, both going through cancer treatment, suffering a great deal of pain. But they didn't have marijuana, and they didn't need marijuana because there were other sources of pain management that worked entirely effectively. I'm told there is even a synthetic marijuana as well that is available. But having legalized marijuana, in my view, is an effort by a very committed few to try and get marijuana out into the public and ultimately legalize marijuana. It's a long way to go. We need less drugs in this society, not more drugs, and I would oppose the legalization of marijuana in the country or legalization of marijuana for medicinal purposes because pain management is available from other sources."

Romney's position from 5 years ago looks exactly like Obama's position today.  Do you have a point?

Only you could use support drug legalization while defending an anti medical marijuana candidate and bringing up a nonsequoitor about the president. LOL

I'm sure mj helps...........something.  But does it alleviate pain?  Not for me, not ever.  Aspirin is better.  I'll ask again

MJ is nowhere near opiates for pain.  Not even close.  And by that I mean fucking worth less than aspirin.  Now let me ask the question yet again:
