If Ron Paul doesn’t run, Ron Paul’s supporters will have to choose someone else.

Also, it’s consistent with Conservative principles. Unless we’re no longer for small government.

And, pro marijuana is the popular position these days. More popular than gay marriage. So, Palin would be going after the 50%+ that support legalization.

There are certain roles even for limited government. One of them is to enforce laws that society deems necessary for its preservation and prosperity. As such I disagree that drug laws and enforcement inconsistent with small government. I’m all for the smallest government possible. I’m also for much more transfer of power to local government and away from the federal government in areas deemed necessary by the Republic.

We should have and enforce drug laws because they’re good for society, most of society agrees with this, and it sets a good example for future generations.
