I decided to run for governor because I got mad... I want to make government more directly accountable to the people.

I'm kind of like Che Guevera. I lead the revolution, but at some point I turn it over to someone else.

You can grow marijuana, so the government can't tax you and they don't like that, that's why they prohibit it.

There is much more to being a patriot and a citizen than reciting the pledge or raising a flag.

The war on drugs causes other supplemental crimes to take place because of the original illegality of it. But then again, that's the other reason that they're fighting it is the corporate prisons they have now. Because they've privatized all our prisons, corporations have to make money, and the only way they can make money is, I believe, the prisons have to be at least 80-90 percent full. That's why the United States - which is home of the brave, land of the free - we have more people in prison than any other country in the world.

You can't legislate stupidity.

People are going to do stupid things, but you don't take away the freedom because somebody makes a stupid decision.
