Biden stepped on that landmine but good. I haven't heard anything from the other candidates. I guess they are checking on what to do after Biden screwed the pooch.
To address Debra's question - https://www.usatoday.com/in-depth/news/nation/2019/09/07/2020-and-legal-weed-where-every-democratic-candidate-stands/2150503001/
All the Democrats favor some kind of Pot Law adjustment. Even Joe. He, at least is willing to allow the states to make up their own mind. I guess I need to re-evaluate my harsh judgement from the other day. That still does not move him onto my list of possibles.
Mayor Pete has the most liberal attitude. He wants to decriminalize all drugs. He must have vacationed in Portugal recently.
I wish he would just go away. I’m 75 and I think he’s just too old. He seems so out of it in the debates. I really believe the democrats should select a younger candidate. It’s time for the old guard to step aside.
What the Democrats need is a candidate that "stands out" like Trump stood out among the Republicans in 2016. So far, I'm not seeing a candidate who can rattle cages and inspire the way Trump lit the fire of angry Americans. I hope I'm wrong!
Which begs the question: Why do people continue to idolize and glorify the fragments of the leaves of a damn plant already? A piece of vegetation being---a deity ...???????
COMMENT: Ben Franklin said, "I imagine a man must have a good deal of vanity who believes, and a good deal of boldness who affirms, that all doctrines he holds are true, and all he rejects are false."
Biden needs to step aside, I think. Having pot be legal in some states, but not on the federal level is just kooky.
ReplyDeleteDo other candidates support legalization? Is Biden alone in this?

ReplyDeleteI'm 71 and agree Biden is too old. So is Bernie. So is Warren. We need someone who's not eligible for Medicare yet.

ReplyDeleteBut, as long as the Republicans control the Senate, this probably won't get ratified.
I also think Biden should step aside, along with Sanders and Warren. OMG - Bloomberg, too!
