Video highlights from the Netroots Nation panel, Undoing Citizens United: A Comprehensive Plan to Prevent Corporations from Buying Elections.

At Netroots Nation 2010 in Las Vegas, Firedoglake blogger Jon Walker participated in a panel with drug policy reformers called “Marijuana Policy and Politics.” I liveblogged a good amount of the discussion at our FDL Elections blog, but if you want to relive the glory, this is your chance!

Major Neill Franklin, the Executive Director of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, talks with us about the panel on marijuana policy at Netroots Nation, California’s Proposition 19, and the prohibition of cannabis.
