“When I was a kid I inhaled frequently. That was the point.” ~ Barack Obama

“When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a time or two, and I didn’t like it, and I didn’t inhale, and I never tried again.” ~ Bill Clinton

The parachute used by George Herbert Walker Bush when his bomber was shot down over the Pacific in 1944 was 100% legal American “Marihuana”. George W. Bush was not born until 1946. Therefore, legal “Marihuana” has saved the lives of two US Presidents.

“Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marihuana in private for personal use… Therefore, I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marihuana.” ~ Jimmy Carter

“Why use up the forests which were centuries in the making and the mines which required ages to lay down, if we can get the equivalent of forest and mineral products in the annual growth of the hemp fields?” ~ Henry Ford

“Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

“Some of my finest hours have been spent on my back veranda, smoking hemp and observing as far as my eye can see.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

“Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere.” ~ George Washington 1794
