on marijuana : No. I think that we have the opportunity through the states that are pursuing recreational marijuana to find out a lot more than we know today. I do support the use of medical_marijuana marijuana, and I think even there we need to do a lot more research so that we know exactly how we're going to help people for whom medical_marijuana marijuana provides relief. So, I think we're just at the beginning, but I agree completely with the idea that we have got to stop imprisoning people who use marijuana.
