On April 20, the rapper Waka Flock Flame announced his run for president. (420 is a significant number for so-called "cannabis culture.") Rolling Stone magazine got the story and posted his campaign video, which you can watch here, but be warned: he uses the "F-word" seven times. 

His campaign promises are to legalize marijuana, ban dogs in restaurants, and ban people who wear large shoes from walking on the sidewalk. 

I'm not sure his slogan, "A blunt a day will take the pain away," will work with Conservatives-maybe Libertarians. 

Makes me proud to be an American. 

Discussion Starters:

• It's interesting that Rolling Stone ran the story, isn't it? Why do you think the editors would agree to this? 
• How do you think his campaign will play out in the race?
