Joe Biden's stance on the legalization of cannabis via Federal statutes....
Campaigning on marijuana

One of the most exciting developments taking place in the cannabis industry is the US 2020 presidential race. Several candidates including Bernie Sanders, Cory Booker, and Kamla Harris have been proponents of legalizing marijuana in the US (MJ). The hope is to appeal to more voters, a page taken from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s campaign back in 2015.

Joe Biden enters

However, not all candidates see the legalization of marijuana as a good thing. On April 25, former Vice President Joe Biden announced his bid for the 2020 race. Joe Biden has long opposed marijuana legalization, and the likelihood of a change in his stance appears slim. One report suggested that Joe Biden’s policy has negatively impacted the war on drugs. Recently, at an opioid epidemic forum, Joe Biden appeared to support the anti-marijuana camp.
Sorry JB......I'll find another suitable candidate.....WAVY GRAVY?

I think we need to wait until the Democratic Debates on June 26-27. Maybe Joe will have a change of heart.

Try not to eliminate any possible contenders until then. Solidarity around the eventual nominee will be critical.

I need to see how Buttigieg will fare against Biden. Regardless, 'if' Biden gets into the first tier debates (and I'm sure he will) I feel the field of candidates will quickly be cut in half -- or more.
