A former Democratic senator will take the reins of a company that makes marijuana products for recreational and health purposes.
Cannabis Sativa Inc., this week announced that 84-year-old former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel will head its subsidiary, Kush, which develops and markets cannabis products including “Kubby” a marijuana-based throat lozenge.
Gravel ran for president in 2008 and served between 1969 and 1981 in the U.S. Senate, where he was a vocal critic of the war on drugs.
"We need to decriminalize drugs and treat them as a health problem," Gravel told Reuters on Wednesday. "You should go see a doctor on the subject, not a sheriff, a police officer or a warden."

democrats are really going after the libertarian votes by supporting legalizing drugs.
Communists justify vacuousness with “profundity.” It’s an art. (I learned it in college.)
Please hire me?
LOL

Vacant look of an Alzheimers patient...
What a great candidate!

Well, he is less of a threat peddeling drugs than passing laws.
agree. at the church I go to is very Conservative and black yet who do I see come election time...Dem Steve Cohen who opposes everything the pastor preaches. Would love to see more Conservative Reublicans appear as there is so much in common.
Drugs for the Young.
Illicit Sex for the Young.
Part Time wages for the Young.
Gosh. What a surprise in our narco state.
If drug companies sell a reverse-engineered version of weed for cancer patients & al., why not make the full plant available under tightly controlled conditions? At least C-II?
Alcohol of weed (CBD, cannabidiol) does not induce a ‘high’.
(Don’t get me wrong: I do, in fact, draw the line at recreational use.)
yeah that will work out well.....obviously consuming too much of their own product to make rational business decisions
So... now he’s the CEO of a health problem?
The state where the Republican presidential candidate has won by large margins since 1972, and which recently legalized recreational marijuana. (Just by way of context.)
