Maybe this explains why the Liberteens never get any more than 3% of the vote...

One of my relatives by marriage smoked a considerable amount of weed in his teens and was diagnosed with depression with psychotic features while in college.

He's not a libertarian, though, Thank God! (LOL!)

Correlation does not show causation. Every depressed person drank milk when they were kids.

That isn't the way correlative analysis is designed.

Can't take credit. Mott the Hoople is an old Brit band, with a song you MAY recall called "All the way from Memphis"

Title of their album, it was.

No, but it explains why a number of other candidates with thought disorder get the vote. With widespread use of drugs in this country the perception of outside irrationality by segments of the population has been decreased because it does not conflict with their accustomed internal state.

LONDON (Reuters) - Smoking cannabis increases the odds of suffering from depression and schizophrenia, doctors said on Friday.

This has been known by experienced clinicians for a long time.
