I would love to see Judge Gray run for office again… Senate, Congress or Governor. Let him know!
Myself and many of my online friends are impressed with Judge Jim Gray’s honest review of Cannabis law ( we are trying to avoid the term Marijuana due to the raciest history of the term )
What we want to ask is will Judge Jim Gray run for Governor in 2010?
I believe there would be a strong support in the Medical Cannabis community for such a candidate.
Thank you all.
IcMag.com was impressed Judge Gray with your video’s.
Please send Judge Jim Gray’s email. We in California, have a very important query for him (see Judicial Watch, and Article 1, Section 6, U.S. Constitution!)

In general, could not agree more! Supported by Reform Party of California. Spot on with abused veterans, stupid substance abuse polices, international relations and most issues!
Judge Gray probably couldnt be convinced to do so, im sure someone has tried. He was the CALP’s best Senatorial candidate since 1992, I believe.
Judge Gray sounds like someone the LP should have running for president.
He was also one of the best-credentialed candidates we’ve ever had, as well as one of the most interviewable and professional.
Anyone who can get Michael Medved to shut up on Medved’s own radio show has got something going very well. Judge Gray did that.
Gray was also probably the LP’s current highest-sitting official.
