LOL, Quote, "Since safety has been proven, President Obama may want a legacy issue; especially since President GW Bush significantly slowed research in this area. Executive action is very possible IMO."
Wow. A sitting POTUS now "grants drug approvals too"?? What?
Has there ever been an "executive action" granting an FDA over-ride and drug approval? Ever?
Also, safety has NOT "been proven". Not possible via an 18 person, very tiny, phase I trial. NO way, no how IMO. One needs to look to the FDA drug approval process and see what part of the purpose of a Phase II is, which includes increased data using much larger population samples to continue the process to prove long term and more complex population subset drug "safety".
