Joseph Biden actually said...

I publicly stated that this president is silent on the matter. Now, what's the one thing that could deal with the kids? The one thing? To keep them from getting into the drug stream or, once they sniff it, to get out of it, no pun intended. There's only two things you can do: the moral disapprobation of society, the president starting it, though him speaking to it the most. Two, dealing with the things that work: the prevention programs, the education programs. This is about a society that does not provide enough opportunity for people living in certain areas, certain circumstances, that relate to jobs, homes, families. No drug policy's going to settle that.
