One of North America's worst problems is the historically discredited war on drugs, which includes the plant cannabis (marijuana). While North America desperately needs credible drug law reform, Canada as a sovereign nation, should influence US voters to make Dennis Kucinich America's next president, since he is proposing to decriminalize and regulate it like alcohol in the US. That would influence policy pertaining to cannabis, worldwide. As a cannabis activist and obedient Christian, ending the policy of caging our brothers for using a plant, is an important issue whose time has come.
