Politico.com reported that
"When the White House put out a call for town hall questions, it might not have been expecting this.
The more than 92,000 people who responded either have Cheech and Chong senses of humor or there is a deep concern in America — undetected by the media — about the decriminalization of marijuana, its possible use for medicinal purposes and its potential as a new source of tax revenue.
Given the opportunity to say what’s really on their minds without going through the filter of the mainstream media, people “buzzed up” a series of questions that seemed to suggest broad interest in legalizing marijuana and taxing it."
President Barack Obama is not president for what he thinks. He said he was going to change government. He said science would drive the process. Yet, we are still slaves to Medicine/Prison/Insurance, Inc. The horror. The necessary change is to restore the will of the people and end hemp prohibition.
We've made nature illegal and wonder why we have a problem with the environment.
We've made the peace pipe illegal and wonder why we have a problem with violence.
Time to rethink hemp Mr. President. Time to stop acting ignorant on the subject and come on by the USA Hemp Museum. Hemp heals.
The webeo below is on a movement in California that is based on using hemp to help solve the state's economic crisis. Even if the president wants to pretend not to know hemp can help fix the economy, there is wisdom in California.

CNN - LOU DOBBS: Pot tax "legalizing marijuana"
Common sense says that when the problem is a lack of tax revenue the solution is to increase tax revenue. Hemp legalization would do that quickly because hemp is a low cost easily renewable resource material that can make 50,000 products.
End Hemp Prohibition. Tax recreational hemp at 20%.

Sister Somayah Kambui Articles
Photo By Peter Gorman For High Times Magazine
My childhood favorite film is THE SONG OF BERNADETTE. It's a story about a girl who was jailed for praying and making the lives of those around her better. Sister Somayah was Los Angeles' Bernadette. Her use of hemp and prayer in healing set new standards as she fought the system for the right to grow and consume hemp...though, unlike Saint Bernadette, she did not go quietly, and we are all so grateful for that. Somayah was a champion and her spirit still is. She too is now a spirit and not a ghost.
Below are a few articles about the work of Sister Somayah Kambui, a hemp hero whose soul moved from life to beyond life on Thanksgiving Day, 2008. Somayah lived twice plus 8 years the average life expectancy of a person with sickle cell. Hemp, her strain was known as Nigritian Keif grown with sickle cell in mind, was her foundation healing medicine.
Sister Somayah was an evolutionary researcher in the field of hemp medicine. She worked on the language and passage of Prop 215 that for the first time voiced the will of the people to legalize hemp, and produced the first 10 Los Angeles Million Global Marijuana marches.
Somayah lived dedicated to the struggle to remove all restrictions from the hemp plant so it can grow its role in healing ourselves, our relationships and our environment.

Hemp Hero Luke Scarmazzo
The USA Hemp Museum, Richard M. Davis, founder, curator, hempologist, is pleased to introduce you to a hemp hero, Luke Scarmazzo.
This courageous young hemp warrior has a few medical marijuana buyers clubs in California that provide safe medicine to people with doctor's notes in a state where the people already voted hemp legal.
The DEA reports about Luke's case:
"....Section 846-Conspiracy to Distribute Marijuana and Section 841(a)(1)-Distribution of Marijuana. The maximum statutory penalty for Conspiracy to Distribute Marijuana is a minimum mandatory term of imprisonment of ten years, and a maximum term of imprisonment of life; a $4 million dollar fine. The maximum statutory penalty for Distribution of Marijuana is a minimum mandatory term of imprisonment of ten years, and a maximum term of imprisonment of life; a $4 million dollar fine.
This case is the product of an extensive joint investigation conducted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, Modesto Police Department, Modesto Narcotics Enforcement Team (“MNET”), Stanislaus Drug Enforcement Agency (“SDEA”), and the Internal Revenue Service.
This case is being prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of California, in Fresno. The charges are only allegations and the defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt."
We are legislated to death. How does one prove themselves innocent when no real crime has been committed? How is it a crime to supply effective medicine to sick people for substantially less than prescription drugs?
If Luke owned or worked in a pharmacy, he could sell folks medicine that kills people. Instead, he chose to supply hemp medicine from which there is not one known case of death other than murder by government.
More on Luke in future posts, but by way of introduction, here are the webeos about Medical Marijuana on 60 Minutes that includes a discussion of his case and a webeo of his tune about being a hemp business man.
