Hemp Can Make America Great Again!By Neenah Payne Donald Trump has promised to Make America Great Again. President-Elect Trump issued his plan for the first 100 days of his administration which includes repeal of Obamacare and the restoration of our economy. However, his plan is missing the most important step that Trump as a businessman can take to jumpstart our economy and provide the best healthcare quickly and easily. Many Libertarians see Trump as Ron Paul lite. When Dr. Paul ran for the presidency in 2012, he issued his Plan to Restore America which included repeal of the War on Drugs. In 2011, Congressman Paul had introduced bills to legalize industrial and medical hemp. Unfortunately Obama failed to follow suit. Jack Herer, co-author of the ground-breaking bookThe Emperor Wears No Clothes: The Authoritative Historical Record of Cannabis and the Conspiracy Against Marijuana said, I dont know if hemps gonna save the world, but Ill tell you this its the only thing that can. Our Founding Fathers required farmers to grow hemp because it is so beneficial. Henry Ford created hemp cars powered by hemp ethanol. Hemp is still used in American cars, but now America has to buy hemp from China, England, Canada, and France because American farmers have not been allowed to grow hemp since misguided policies banned it in 1937. That increases costs 10-15% or more. The US is the largest importer of industrial hemp and China is the largest exporter! Ralph Nader pleaded in 2011 Let Our Farmers Grow Hemp and said in 2013 Legalize Hemp Its Long Overdue. Its time for America to re-affirm hemp as a national treasure, key to our future. In the 2016 Legatum Prosperity Index, America is in 17th place, down from 12th in 2012 and 6th in 2008. The US is the only industrialized country with no hemp industry. In his opposition to the legalization of industrial and medical hemp, Obama has been out of line with our best interests, American history, and the will of the American people. We can literally no longer afford to ignore hemp, a trillion-dollar crop! Trump should quickly rescue this vital crop in the first 100 days of his administration. Legalization of industrial and medical hemp could be the Tipping Point that allows us to avoid the escalating financial, environmental, healthcare, and food crises. Hemp can catapult America into an upward spiral! The benefits of industrial hemp include: In 1942, the US government distributed 400,000 pounds of hemp seeds to American farmers to aid the war effort! The Bible and the US Constitution were printed on hemp paper because it does not yellow. Hemp seeds provide the right balance of Omega 3-Omega 6 Essential Fatty Acids to help correct the American diet which has an excess of Omega 6. Hemp is used in over 30 countries and has numerous environmental benefits, including: less reliance on oil, more efficient use of energy, forest conservation, soil redemption and landfill use reduction. Over 25,000 products can be made from industrial hemp. Hemp Cars Could Be Wave of the Future ABC News Most bankruptcies are due to medical costs even for insured Americans. Medical hemp can help keep Americans healthy while quickly and inexpensively reversing a wide variety of degenerative diseases crippling and killing millions of Americans each year. Legalization of medical hemp is now supported by the majority of Americans as a growing number of states make it available. The medical community is also quickly coming onboard. Medical hemp treats over 100 diseases and ailments. In 2014, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNNs chief medical officer, did a public reversal of his opposition to medical hemp after investigating its curative powers as shown in the video: Dr. Sanjay Gupta: Why I Changed My Mind On Weed YouTube. The article Dr. Sanjay Gupta: Why I Changed My Mind on Weed CNN.comreports: I apologize because I didnt look hard enough, until now. I didnt look far enough. I didnt review papers from smaller labs in other countries doing some remarkable research, and I was too dismissive of the loud chorus of legitimate patients whose symptoms improved on cannabis. A Once-Skeptical Doctor Makes the Case for Medical Marijuanasays: Before he quite literally wrote the book on it, Dr. David Casarett mostly thought of medical marijuana as a joke, the author of Stoned: A Doctors Case for Medical Marijuana told Terry Gross in an interview on Fresh Air. But after about 18 months of extensive research, which involved both a bit of self-experimentation and reporting excursions that took him as far as Tel Aviv, hes changed his opinion. Medical marijuana, he now argues, is something his peers in the medical community should be takingseriously. The book The Cannabis Manifesto: A New Paradigm for Wellness has a 5-star rating onAmazon. Charlottles Web Hemp Oil is named for Charlotte Figi, a little girl whom the medical profession sent home to die because of her uncontrollable seizures. However, with ONE DOSE of the hemp oil which The Stanley Brothers created and named for her, Charlottes seizures stopped. She now has a normal life thanks to CWHO. See the article Charlotte Figis Ongoing Story With Medical Marijuana. Until 2015, CWHO was reserved for kids suffering from seizures. Charlottes Web Hemp Oil can now be shipped to all 50 states. People who register with The Realm of Caring can buy the hemp oil at a discount. Canadian Rick Simpson has shown that the oil from the buds of the hemp plant is a cure all! He used the oil to treat 5,000 people of a wide variety of illnesses (including terminal cancer) for free with no negative side effects. His story is documented in the video RUN FROM THE CURE The Rick Simpson Story which covers the phenomenal rise of one of the most important movements in human history. When Canada threatened Rick for curing people, he fled to Croatia where he has been in exile since 2013. Ricks dream is to find a country where he can grow medical hemp and standardize the strains which are best for each illness. In the video interview The Funniest Rick Simpson Interview Ever Hemp Oil Cures Anything!, Rick says his oil is now used at the Nimea Kaya Healing Center in Peru. The video interview Rick Simpson / Cannabis Hemp Solutions to Human Problems is very informative. The article 89 Percent of U.S. Voters Say Medical Marijuana Should Be Legal shows strong support for medical hemp as calls to end the War on Drugs escalate. Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), an international organization of criminal justice professionals, calls for an end to the War on Drugs. The Executive VP of LEAP describes the War on Drugs as Public Enemy #1. These articles and video show that a growing majority of Americans support legalization of hemp: Marijuana Legalized Across America The article And the Winner of the 2016 Election Is CANNABIS! says: As scientific evidence shows marijuana has beneficial medical effects, the country is becoming warmer to the idea of effectively nullifying the federal rules on the plant. And if 2016 is, indeed, a tipping point for marijuana reform, as a spokesperson for the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP) said in an interview, 2017 could see residents in at least three more states passing similar rules. Trump has the opportunity to begin his administration with a dramatic policy that will unite the sharply divided country. Many Black Americans (and other non-Whites) see Trumps promise to Make America Great Again as a coded message to Make America White Again. The presidential campaign was so contentious that the threat of violence still looms over the nation. So, Trump needs to quickly signal that he plans to serve as president for all Americans. The War on Drugs has imprisoned more Blacks than were enslaved during the 19th century. The law has been harshly imposed in Black communities while White students on college campuses are unaffected. Ending the War on Drugs will benefit everyone so that Trump will quickly earn the support of the whole nation and encourage all Americans to work together to make America great again. My video Hemp Revolution 2015 explains more about the wonders of industrial and medical hemp. It was first posted in 2011, updated each year until last year, and has been seen by about 5,000 people.
