62 Sitatet er hentet fra Joseph D. Douglass, Red Cocaine; the drugging of America and the
West (Edward Harle Limited 1999), s 94. John Ehrlichman sa dette i et vitnemål til senatet
den 28. juli 1976: “Narcotics supression is a very sexy political issue. It usually has high media
visibility. Parents who are voters are worried about narcotics. They listen to a politician
when he talks about drug suppression just as they seem to tune him out when he makes
speeches about the energy problem. Therefore, the White House often wants to be involved
in narcotics problems even when it doesn’t need to be. (…) For example, the feds went into
street enforcement partly in response to the obvious political mileage to be gained.” Dan
Baum, Smoke And Mirrors; the War on Drugs and the Politics of Failure (Back Bay
Books/Little Brown and Company) s 67.
