2. Why did the people laugh before President Obama made the joke? |
|
I was glad to hear him praise the student for questioning conventional wisdom though. That's certainly a nice way to look at it. I'm glad he is at last open minded enough to do that much. Hey, a girl can dream. :P
Maybe next generation when I'm 80 or so, they'll finally legalize both. I could at least still enjoy the weed then, anyhow. Hey, a girl can dream. :evilgrin:

6. they were laughing because he was suggesting them not as good public policy |
|
but as a contributing effort in job creation. Sounded like something from Animal House.

7. "Non-violent crime" too. |
|
The question was phrased in a way that Obama could only answer one way.

5. Feels like the actual answer is not in this video, which is too bad. I'm interested in whatever... |
|
...substantive response he gave, if any.
