It's not about pot. It's about limiting the powers of the federal government and forcing that government to obey the Constitution that created it. If you think pot should be illegal, have your own state legislature ban it. You can even encourage other states to ban it. It would be a different matter entirely if all 50 states banned it. It would mean that the majority in each state voted against it. That was the intent of the founding fathers. They wanted a union of republics not an all powerful central government.

Sure it's about pot. I've never seen anyone who carries on about how the government shouldn't infringe on CA's right to 'legalize' marijuana encourage their state to allow the use of radical new treatments available in France or Mexico. They always wait for FDA approvals.
