prop 19

Atlanta
Ronald Reagan did not start the war on drugs, but as a core pillar of his presidency. So it makes sense to party members who tea are inspired by Mr. Reagan to oppose the proposal 19 in California, which would legalize marijuana possession.But conventional wisdom, small government’s current enthusiasm election may also meet in a strange place (and likely to smoke) on election day.
Instead of objections from 19 pillar, and parts of the tea party – and praised the legalization of drugs as a mainstay in the ideological battle between the progressive (a broader role for government), and – including some of the stalwarts in such as Tom Tancredo of Colorado and Paul Rand in the state of Kentucky the ideals of the rights of States (to get the government out of the living rooms).

Whether or not conservatives and liberals Tea Party – the two main branches of the rebel movement a strong political – will help put the pillar 19 to the summit is an open question. But some commentators believe anecdotal support among many of the tea partyers to legalize marijuana in California.
In the end, the vote can provide 19 support the main idea whether the tea party can breach the Republican Party to the walls of the culture of war – or whether the enforcement of drug laws and the system will remain the Conservative Party line.
“I thought pillar 19 was going to be more than something of a liberal democracy, then suddenly I find, hey, I’m wrong,” says Liu of Lawrence, a sheriff’s deputy and the State of California and former Post writer and activist in the area of ratification of the Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (Leap ). “I had written that the tea party will oppose most likely, but then I got phone calls saying: ‘No, you’re wrong in that.’ People’s Party tea has a very strong position that the government has no right to participate in private affairs … When you do not hurt yourself or someone else, and this pillar in the foundation 19 in a nutshell. ”
If the pillar 19 and passes the Ministry of Justice Obama challenges in court, as it has promised to do so, can paint a tea party campaign and more evidence to form an inclusive government that has little respect for the rights of nations to self-identify.

Without Polson, a columnist and the broker in the province of Tehama, California, and is consistent with the assessment in the more traditional of the legalization of marijuana, even quoting the group tea party: “Tea Party, national and Jarvis Howard Association of Taxpayers says: Prop 19 does not [and] or should not be clear that the reasons for the pot further encouraged among our youth, “he writes in the Daily News Red hoax.
What’s more, it has been overall support for the initiative amid feeble opposition from Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) and most of the editorial boards of State. Down from a peak of 49 percent support, and opinion polls now put at 42 percent, again according to the survey field.
Still, the marijuana legalization movement matures, could become the cry of the party politicians like tea. Poll numbers killed him when he was Mr. Tancredo, a candidate for governor in the state of Colorado, delivered a speech in support of the legalization of drugs, to the top.
Even some Republicans have softened their opposition to legalize marijuana outright, with growing support by 7 percent since 2005, according to Gallup. Nearly 50 percent of independents – who strongly courted by both parties – support legalization, and also in accordance with Gallup.

“There is a strong tradition in this very conservative country, and part of it was liberal on the economy, [but] was always a streak of repression is very strong on other issues,” says Mr. Postel. “I do not think it’s easy at any time to separate the two.”
