Ron Paul, of course.

The rapper and marijuana enthusiast appeared to grant his endorsement to GOP candidate Paul on his Facebook page late Monday, posting a picture of Paul with the headline "Smoke Weed Everyday." Snoop Dogg -- born Calvin Broadus -- included the message "Because I said so" with his post.
Broadus -- whose most recent marijuana-related arrest occurred earlier this month, at the Texas border town of Sierra Blanca -- is presumably drawn to Paul due to the libertarian-leaning candidate's stance on drugs. Paul, an advocate of smaller federal government, was a co-sponsor of the States' Rights to Medical Marijuana Act, and supports the Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults Act of 2008.

I guess this is in retaliation to Hillary supporters saying they like Bernie but Bernie can't win which the worse hit on Brrnie there is!

(18,402 posts)I heard it a few nights ago on Andy Cohen (Watch What Happens Live). He wants to see a woman representing the US in the global arena. His words, not mine. And yes, he voted for Obama. He said he was wrong some times (re: Paul), and was a big man to admit it.
