He wants to stop federal criminalization and legalize medical marijuana (as in California) nationwide. He does not want to make it "legal" though. He does not intend to leaglize it at all, he mearly wants to decriminalize it so the individual state can legalize it or tax it as a source of revenue

Well, technically he can't. Congress has that power. Remember, under separation of powers Congress makes the laws; the President, who heads the Executive Branch, is just supposed to enforce them....

He does not smoke it any more, and hasn't smoked it for many years. During high school, he went through a period of rebellion, and was hanging with a group of students who frequently smoked marijuana, and also experimented with cocaine. Mr. Obama has never hidden from this period of his life and has written about it in his autobiography. He has said it is not something he is proud of doing. Fortunately, he was still a good student, and he never got arrested or suspended. But his grandparents and his mother were undoubtedly displeased when they found out about his use of drugs, since that is not how they raised him. Eventually, when he got to college, he decided to stop using them and focus on his studies.

Probably not. This is a very controversial question, and even though the president admits to having used marijuana when he was young, he knows it is a very contentious issue. Many adults (including those who used it during their youth) are not comfortable with legalizing it, although surveys show more people in favor of decriminalizing it. The president also knows a conservative congress would never pass legislation that legalized marijuana. However, there is a better chance of medical marijuana being legalized at some point, although it is difficult to predict when that will occur.

Yes. He has smoked cocaine and marijuana while in high school. He doesn't smoke any of that anymore.

I don't think anyone is that much of an idiot, even him.
