Washington, Apr 4 (ANI): Guitarist Carlos Santana has urged American President Barack Obama to legalize marijuana.
Carlos feels that the legalization would boost America’s flagging economy and create jobs.
“Legalise marijuana and take all that money and invest it in teachers and in education. You will see a transformation in America,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.
Carlos also insisted that legalization of marijuana would help remove Arnold from his powerful position.
“I really believe that as soon as we legalise and decriminalise marijuana we can actually afford a really good governor who won’t keep taking money away from education and from teachers and send him back to Hollywood where he can do ‘D’ movies and we can get an ‘A’ governor,” he said. (ANI)
