Are you looking at whether the federal government outlaw marijuana altogether, or whether a person can grow a small amount of marijuana and use it within his state or have someone grow it for him for use within his state?

If those second two types of activity are constitutionally off-limits to the federal government, then it doesn't have the full power to do the first. Again, it doesn't matter what state law says.

I don't think it's as simple as that, but you have a right to your opinion. I bet the Supreme Court examines the state law in their opinion on Ashcroft v. Raich though.
