CBS News poll: Support for legal marijuana use up to 65 percent
A new CBS News poll says Americans’ support for legal marijuana use is now at 65 percent, up from 45 percent just six years ago. But a majority of Americans say it would make no difference if a presidential candidate supported legal use. Many 2020 Democrats are embracing the idea. Mona Zhang, who covers the marijuana beat, joined CBSN to discuss its impact on the presidential race.
The 65+ group are just being selfish. They definitely smoked their share, and don’t want the young folks to have any fun…
Soooooo, I see a poll for ages 18-34 and 65+, no gen x and older millennials?
I support and will always vote Right.
Legalize cannabis
Bout time the Democrats like some thing that will make our country money
They should’ve legalized it a long time ago
trump 2020 .. no police funding measures or tax levies will be voted for till its legalized … keep punching wallets till it happens
The law against weed, only exists to give the people in power a club to smack the poor and the inconvenient with. People in general are realizing they have been lied to all their lives, and the law will die altogether soon.
Remember, this isn’t about you’re freedom anymore than it’s about democracy. Follow the money.
Whether or not it ever becomes legal, is it really going to change your day to day activities? As a Colorado resident I can tell you that the more lawyers/elected officials that can be kept out of the process, the better! Colorado has turned medical cannabis into a revenue generating nightmare that is less and less about patients and more about tax revenues.
Why do all of the legal marijuana products in California come with a cancer warning — even the oils and edibles? This could all turn out horribly in the near and distant future — especially if the U.S. moves to some sort of socialized medical system.
Make marijuana legal 2020!
The reason why these tyrannical oppressive pigs in suits and ties made this herb forbidden is because it frees us from their lies and brainwashing. May death be upon the us government and all governments all across the world.
Just legalize marijuana already!!! Fire them if they go to work too high to do their job after a warning!!!!!!!!
BERNIE FOR PRESEDENT 💚 AND CALL A NEW WORLD ORDER TO LEGALIZE CANNABIS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD ☮️🔥❤️
I’m a republican and I say Legalize it NATIONWIDE
Soooo dams pitch to the American people is vote for us the democratics in 2020 to get weed legal smh trying to get the black vote to beat trump smh
Let’s discuss cannabis.
When he flashes me he makes me nervous and never wants to work again
plz dont smoke it. medically use as oil, ok!!! but no smoke
Republicans are the majority prison owners
Call it Marijuana you dope… Pot just sounds bad when your trying to legalize it.
All the thumbnail shows is only liberals are 18-34. I support legalization, it’s sad that so many idiots agree with me.
The drug war is all about suppressing minorities. The only reason to delay legalization is to simply give large corporations the lead time to establish market share. The last thing Wall Streets wants is to empower minority communities by letting them start up a small business for selling legal marijuana. It’s about suppressing the competition prematurely!!! @
Why r Mexican support afraid of legalization
I’m a constitutional Conservative, and I support legalization. Alcohol is a far worse drug, and we need to free up resources for serious crimes. Legalization could also reduce property and other taxes, since millions are spent prosecuting low level marijuana cases, and big potential tax revenues currently go into the pockets of black market dealers.
Liberal Republican support it because of flashy light rendering
Don’t vote for Bloomberg, his stance is no better than Jeff Sessions.
I STAND AND SUPPORT THE CANNABIS LEAGLEISATION IN WEST VIRGINIA AND ALSO WORLD WIDE I’M THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
It’s nearly 2020 the real crime is the fact medical marijuana still isn’t legal.
States haft to as well
Its cannabis, get it right.
I didnt vote
Please research the connection between Harry J Anslinger and William R Hearst’s yellow journalism and you will find out a lot.
Go USA!
Still has killed zero people ever on the history of mankind, cannabis!
Maybe one day U.S. politicians will do the bidding of their constituents and NOT the lobbyist. Land of the free- what a joke.
LMAO….These poles are bogus. And to just think, that there are stupid people that actually believe this propaganda.
I like how the charts show dems are all for it lmfaooooo
Anybody else annoyed at how at 0:10 we go from present day, 2018, 2013, 1979 instead of 1979, 2013, 2018, present day?

So, we find out all over again that there’s a reason it’s called “Dope.
Marijuana is dangerous and unhealthy and veterans shouldn’t use it. War isn’t dangerous, but cannabis is.
I highly doubt the accuracy of any of your polls. Did you get your population sample from Millennials and their professors? You’re the same people who predicted a landslide for Hillary in 2016. Why should I believe you now? Most people don’t want their kids growing up to be stoners, and most know it leads to harder drugs. You may now return to your regularly scheduled fake news.
So people will be driving while smoking , think about that.
LET MY PEOPLE GROW AND GO ASAP WITH 0 DEATHS EVER CURE FOR CANCER and much more ENDOCANNABINOID SYSTM GOD MADE GOOD
Year later nothing….
