That’s fine, I’m not opposed to this, but I will say that I am not for other harder drugs such as meth, coke, heroin etc being legalized.

Do you think the Federal government has constitutional authorization to regulate whatever its bureaucracies decide are drugs?

If so, what article, section and clause provides this power?

Personally, I can't find it, but I do notice germane language to this subject can be found in the 10th Amendment.

By the American design, individual states should have leeway to permit or restrict such things as they see fit.

No, I really don’t.

Frankly, I’d be fine if such matters were decided by states.

I’m really not for the federal government doing anything other than what it is authorized in the constitution to do, because it has clearly proven that it is not to be trusted at all.

So let me clarify by saying that I prefer that the states let these hard drugs remain illegal, and the federal government bug off on just about everything.
