    Shaun King Retweeted Cynthia Nixon

    This is why I am supporting and campaigning for @CynthiaNixon to be the next Governor of New York. This is the best video on the legalization of marijuana I've ever seen from someone running for political office. Wow. She told the whole truth.https://twitter.com/CynthiaNixon/status/984070632588627968 …

        breaking the cycle of incarceration that results from racist enforcement of drug laws is more than just "weed"

        You are right and I understand that but a governor is responsible for more than a single issue - before one jumps all we should know everything that person stands for or against

        Not taking any corporate money, opposing tax breaks to wealthy people and corporations that Cuomo allowed, and demanding the proper allocation of funds to bring the subway into this century are all part of her platform as well. It's not just weed.

        She’s not qualified. Governing a state is not an entry level position.

        Impressive. I will say, I had been very skeptical. For one ad to put me back on the fence says a lot about how successful she might be. It is rare in these times for truth to be spoken at all: delivering it so simply and without any obfuscation is wonderfully refreshing.

        I think Nixon is a decent actress. However, she’s grossly unqualified to be governor of NY. I strongly support Governor Cuomo. NY deserves a real executive with legal and political acumen not a person who reads someone else’s words and operates in fantasy.
