"Do you support that, and if not, why not?"

Nope.

We tried it once. It lasted 13 short years. The people didn't want Prohibition. They still don't.

They did when it began. It took them only 13 years to learn the lessons today's Americans are still slowly figuring out after 30 years of the war on drugs ... but as a conservative I have no problem saying Americans had more common sense 70 years ago.
