Tommy Chong said he was insulted after the campaign for Democratic presidential candidate Bernard Sanders disinvited him to speak just hours before a rally Sunday in East Los Angeles.
The Cheech & Chong actor and outspoken marijuana activist told The Hollywood Reporter that the Sanders campaign was happy to have his endorsement earlier this year, but got cold feet when it came time to fully embrace his pro-legalization stance.

Because nothing says ‘you’re a serious candidate’ like having an old pot smoking hippy on your side.

Saw a picture of burned out, fried Tommy Chong next to Bernie.
The face you posted isn’t far from reality.

Saw a picture of burned out, fried Tommy Chong next to Bernie. The face you posted isnt far from reality. The guy is 78. He looks great considering all the abuse he has given his body.

Did anybody see Dick Van Dyke - I mean, my idol, Dick Van Dyke - introduce Bernie in California????
This is the same man who autographed my Dick Van Dyke Show dvd several years ago when he appeared in Chita Rivera’s Broadway show and was so kind and charming. His daughter wasn’t very nice at all - maybe that’s where he gets his political tips.

Smoking weed must not be too bad for the body. Look at Willie Nelson who is 83.

In the late 1980s, Chong became a naturalized citizen of the United States. Rae Dawn Chong has also become a naturalized U.S. citizen.

Chong was a Snow Dodger.
Bernie’s pivoting to the general election. While legalization would win kudos in his (adopted) party, it might not be so useful in the electoral college.

You surprised? That TV comedy show of his was helmed by Meathead’s father.

That’s ridiculous. That show was 60 years ago and had nothing to do with anything today. I guess now that classic tv show is commie-inspired?!
