The democratic or republican party that I am researching is United States Marijuana Party . The Marijuana Party was tired of living in fear from the government, all they want was marijuana to be legal. This party was founded in 2002 and was founded to stop the "war on drugs" and legalize cannabis. The party was founded by Loretta Nall.

"We are fed up with the intrusion into our personal lives, with urine testing at work and at school, with armed home invasions, and with the possibility of prison because of a plant. WE are Americans and WE do not piss in a cup for anyone!" This quote was taken off of their site. They just want to not have to go through all of this because of a plant. If anything, they don't want anyone else intruding in their lives.

The Marijuana Party wants nothing more than for all 20 million of those who use marijuana and love it to be united as a great body of voters, so that they can take this prohibition to court and end the unconstitutional prohibition of marijuana and the drug war. Their thoughts on the drug war is: "The war on drugs are doing more harm than the drugs themselves."

"WE want to live free and WE must be determined to stand up, be counted, demonstrate, rally, and write." This quote was also taken from their site. The party wants to be able to do the things that they seem fit. So many of the people who use marijuana are in jail right now.

"The war against marijuana is a genocidal war waged against us by a government determined to eradicate our plant, our culture, our freedom and our political rights." This is the last quote I am using from their site.

For all in all, I support what they want to do, I mean if anything the drug war is far more worse than marijuana. (http://usmjparty.wordpress.com/)
