40. I think that's why Obama said what he said.

As much as he's working to get the DEA and the drug warriors to chill out, and as much as he might want to legalize, as President, he can't say it.

The freeptards are giving him enough grief already - this just gives them ammunition.

Support for legalization is growing. IIRC, Nate Silver of fivethirtyeight.com predicted legalization would take place when a supermajority of the population, 60%, favored legalization.
