What is your position on pot and the constitution then, or is that unfair?

My position on pot and the constitution is that when the Constitution was written and ratified, there was no enumerated power transferred to the national government intended to give them the authority to control pot. Unless and until that is modified by an amendment properly ratified by the States it remains as it was understood and intended by the people who wrote and ratified it.

What's your position?

The same. I have not advocated or implied that the federal government make any laws on pot. My reference to Madison had to do with the need for government, not the need for a federal pot law.
