A MATTER OF TIME

Regarding "Pot RX: Will Ohio Ever Legalize Medical Marijuana?" ( 11/19 ): The answer is yes.  It's unavoidable.  Even though our federal government has had a stranglehold on this medical research over the past several decades, studies showing the positive side to marijuana's medicinal effects are emerging all over the world.  We will not continue to deny the sick, nor will we continue to deprive ourselves of higher education.  However, with a "Republican-dominated state legislature, and a governor and first lady with a slant against illegal drug use during a presidential election year," the real question is "When?"

( By the way, does being a Republican, governor or first lady during a presidential election year really mean they would not likely go with the flow? )
