A new Renaissance with Ron Paul as president?

I was watching some videos of Ron Paul's stance on drugs, and I began to think.

If Ron Paul became our president, hemp would be legalized. This material is a wonder, it can be made into many things and has tons of applications to society and infrastructure.
Hemp could be used as plastics. This would finally help us shift away from oil dependency!
That is just one of many examples!

Could Hemp Save the Planet?
Has some good examples.

We are talking about a new way of living people!

Am I right to say.....A new Industrial Revolution/Renaissance?

Right? People need to hear the truth, and Ron Paul is the man who will speak it.

from my understanding and listening to pauls stances.

decisions lay at the state level its not up to the federal government what to decide the legality of anything.

maybe i have just misunderstood.

Just because Ron Paul would support hemp legalization, doesn't mean it will happen. The law would have to be rescinded by Congress. What Congressman Paulmcould do is bring our troops home. He's the commander-in-chief, and it has been traditionally accepted that the President has the authority to withdraw troops

I guess I was looking at the grandeur of things.

Well, we gotta start somewhere. Decriminalization would certainly push it in the right direction.
