I wonder how long before a constitutional amendment is considered to bypass the feds?
You need 34 states to call for a convention to amend. There are currently 29 states with legalized marijuana in some form, and numerous considering it. The amendment doesn't have to say that pot is legal, just that it is a state's issue and not federal. The danger is the amendment could be expanded to a host of additional issues ranging from abortion to religious freedom.
Conversely if the house and senate flip, they could go the more traditional route.
