y and many others have failed to stop these slippery proposals at the ballot box. And it is time for clear leadership from the top - from Bill Clinton, the man who didn't inhale."(3)
             Proposition 215 permits smoking pot for almost any complaint if there is simply an oral recommendation from their physician. This makes legally smoking it in California fairly easy. This proposition changes state law to allow people to grow and possess marijuana for medical use when there is a recommendation by a physician. This recommendation may be oral or written. Smoking and possessing marijuana is allowed if a physician determines a person would benefit from use of it in "treatment of cancer, anorexia, AIDS, chronic pain, spasticity, glaucoma, arthritis, migraine, or 'any other illness for which marijuana provides relief'."(7) The law states that patients who receive marijuana must be over fifteen years old and have marijuana experience and for the pill that contains the main ingredient in marijuana, THC, the patients must be at least five years old. These patients must use the marijuana on an inpatient basis and be receiving rarely used and severe form of chemotherapy. Even with this discrimination against who is to get the drug, the study consistently found marijuana to be effective in stopping vomiting. Some say that Proposition 215 allows marijuana to be grown anywhere and to be in unlimited quantities. This is not true because it does not allow unlimited quantities, rather is only allows marijuana to be grown for patients personal use and only with the recommendation of a physician. Patients as well as non patients will be arrested if they are caught trying to sell marijuana. Those who take care of a patient who is permitted to smoke marijuana are allowed to possess and grow the drug for the patient. Proposition 215 benefits the patients in California who needed marijuana to better their medical condition.
