Jimmy Carter actually said...

"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself."

"I do not condone any drug abuse, and we'll do everything possible to reduce the serious threat to our society."

"I will nominate Joseph D. Duffey, of Washington, D.C., to be Chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities."

"Improved treatment and prevention programs should be accompanied by appropriate changes in Federal regulations, administrative practices, and enforcement."
