The reason I'm running for Governor isn't because I think I will win, but for the opportunity running gives me (and anyone who votes for me) to give the "FINGER" state-wide to our Demo-publican party politicians who wage their LIE I based "WAR on US". "Us" meaning; "we the people" who freely choose to use substances regardless of what the "do-gooders" think is best. I personally chose to use the "GOD GROWN HERB MARIJUANA" so I fight our governments war on it's "POT-FRONT". The fact that I can obtain marijuana any day of the week I chose is testimate to the failure of our Governments racist war on drugs. The war on drugs is a $35 billion a year failure that will never be won. For it is "WE THE PEOPLE" that want them! It is for our Freedoms that I run. I'm not rich or seeking power like the other candidates. I'm openly trying to spark a "REEFER REVOLUTION".

I want to say state-wide that our Government openly lies to "we the people" bout the "herb" marijuana. The Government says marijuana is a dangerous, addictive drug that has no medical value, while factually it is one of the safest non addictive, therapeutic herbs on the planet. A true gift of "GOD". Marijuana is no more dangerous than our Governments claimed Iraqi WMD's

I was born with certain inalienable rights, of which I regard the RIGHT(s) to freedom of Religion and Speech to be the most important. I have freely chosen the religion of Rastafari and openly proselytize about my belief that our herb/sacrament is good. Unfortunately for me in the eyes of Government officials I have an illegal religion (RASTAFARI) and have been unjustly jailed for expressing these beliefs. In our Governments 21st century drug war 'RAST AF  RI' is as illegal a religion to practice in America as Quakerism was in England in 1690, or Faluan Gong is in China or Christianity is in Saudi Arabia today.

At one time in history to publicly say the truth that the "world was round" Christian authorities would bum you at the stake. Today for publicly telling the truth about Marijuana, I've been repeated attacked/abused by Christian Government and law enforcement officers who rely on this ungodly racist "WAR ON DRUGS” for their livelihoods. I've been jailed without the right to a fair trial (2000), imprisoned for simply saying "LEGALIZE IT" (SEE http://www.njweedman.com/censorship) (2002-03), denied the right to see MY own daughter (1998-2004) who's name as even legally changed because of my public beliefs. While I've also denied the Right to change my own name to NJWEEDMAN.COM.

We in America today have more reason to revolt than the colonist did in 1776. What our press and Government calls human rights abuses, or religious persecution in China and Saudi Arabia happens here every day. 800,000 herb users are arrested every year because our Christian lawmakers have turned their superstitions into our laws.
