Food for thought
In his first book, Obama wrote about how he did drugs when he was younger. Because of the penalties and the stigma of a criminal record, if he’d gotten caught he might be in prison now instead of running for President of the United States. What a terrible loss that would have been for our country. I for one am glad that he was able to “get away with” having the freedom to take his own risks and be responsible for himself and his own actions and choices, rather than just being labelled a criminal for the rest of his life.
