Barack Obama: The president who spoke openly about weed

In 2006, Barack Obama admitted to having regularly consumed cannabis as a teenager (video). Unlike many politicians, he never made a secret of this and spoke openly about his experiences. During his time in office, he campaigned for a more liberal drug policy, which ultimately contributed to legalization in several US states. Today, cannabis is legal in many parts of the USA: a change that began under Obama’s administration. Back to: Stars & Cannabis in the USA.
