Presidents govern on social issues all the time.

The reasons why Obama wouldn't get weed legalized are-
a. he doesn't want to, and
b. even if he did, he couldn't get legislation to do that passed through the Congress.

For the record, Obama probably couldn't have even gotten a Freedom Of Choice Act passed (not impossible, but definitely improbable), let alone legalization of marijuana or same-sex marriage rights thanks to all the hardcore moderates.  Would I have wanted to see all those things pass?  Yes, but it just isn't that simple.  And we all saw what happened when the Republicans tried to pass the FMA back in '06.

But yeah, Mecha pretty much explained it best. Tongue
