text: I already voted for him.  But he doesn't want to legalize marijuana...he wants to decriminalize it.  There's a difference.  What is trying to get at with the decriminalization of marijuana is that too many people are being put in jail as first time offenders (possession of pot and what not).  We would be better off as a state if those people wouldn't be taking up jail cells that could be used for more serious offenders.
