Mexico’s Vicente Fox pushes marijuana debate to forefront

“Former President Vicente Fox grew up on a farm here in rural Guanajuato, one of Mexico’s most conservative states. He is the kind of guy who wears big belt buckles, collects hand-tooled saddles and worships the free market.  Fox has always fancied himself a policy maverick. And these days, the former standard-bearer of Mexico’s conservative National Action Party, or PAN, has emerged as one of Latin America’s most outspoken advocates of marijuana legalization.  This summer he has significantly ramped up his efforts. In June, he declared that he would grow the plant if it were legalized and added that he’d like to see marijuana sold in Mexican convenience stores.”
