Bernie Sanders is the only candidate to support full legalization. Hillary has only said that she was in favor of moving pot to schedule 2, ranking it with cocaine and crack, but she is otherwise silent on the prohibition issue. Her political style is to make calculated remarks based on what will get her the most gains, so it is possible that, given the majority opinion in the country that she maybe, might incrementally move a bit further, or, maybe, just conveniently forget it altogether when in office. There are a lot of people who liked Bill in spite of everything but who always disliked Hillory. For many, she seems conniving and untrustworthy. Her campaign is almost entirely funded by large donations whereas Bernie Sanders is almost entirely funded from donations under $200 by individuals. Sanders has about 32% in the polls to around 50% for Clinton last time I checked.
Trump favors "decriminalization" but his bellicose (mostly factually incorrect) one-liners are probably the best thing the dems have going for them right now.
Rand Paul would let states decide, which would repeal federal prohibition, which is all we need, really, but he is crowded out by all the rampant populist sloganeering of the other repub candidates and doesn't stand a chance.
All things considered, Sanders liberal agenda doesn't really scare me at all, compared to the scariness of the other two front runners. jmho :)
Anyway, time to celebrate the holiday. Not worry about stocks and politics.
Merry Christmas.
