Hi my name is Dennis Schuller I am running to represent the state of Minnesota as one of our two United States Senators. I would like to think that honesty, integrity, hard work, and practical sense have a place in our system of government, if so I am the right person for the job. Yes cannabis should be legalized but what exactly does that mean? My main points of focus will be at the federal level as a US senator.

Now think of all the bad stuff that has happened during cannabis prohibition, the ensuing drug war, the world wide preoccupation with "drugs", the underground gang activity, the police state, the private prisons, and most importantly the question of personal safety still lingers. After all this and ninety years of prohibition I think it is time to reset and focus on actual crimes that violate a person’s life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. At the state level I recommend
