*Cough* the only arguement you really need, is that there is no authorization, anywhere in the constitution that gives the federal government the authority in this regard.
all this "conspiracy" business (whether protions of it are true or not) and econut claptrap is gonna generate is lot of finger pointing and shouts of "Hippy!" "TINFOIL!" etc.

I can buy the argument that the Government cannot rationally use the interstate commerce clause to regulate the growth of medicinal marijuana for use as directed by a medical doctor. However, if we are talking about a product such as hemp that is intended to be grown and used on a national basis, then that is interstate commerce and regulation of it is constitutional. Now, THAT being said, I cannot understand the suppression of the growth of hemp on any basis.
