My concern is the the ambiguity.

Right. That is what I think most folks who support legalization are concerned about.

Its the somewhat hidebound nature of our political system that rewards seniority that is the problem. A majority of Republicans support making Marijuana legal but our elected officials are old enough they believe that "Reefer Madness" actually downplayed the dangers of Lucifer's Lawn Clippings.

This isn't a knock on Republicans mind you, Democrats have the same problem on other issues. You can see it with rank and file Democrats desperate to find a way to ease increasingly out of touch Nancy Pelosi out the door.

We will just have to wait them out. In ten years I would be surprised if its not legal across the United States.
