| No matter who wins the Democratic presidential primary, vice will be on the ballot in 2020. Almost all Democratic candidates have embraced legalizing marijuana, and one has even expressed support for legalizing prostitution.
These developments are remarkable, but the candidates backing them are not exactly breaking ground. The real surprise is that they’re pandering. Over the past 20 years, support for legalizing marijuana has doubled, from roughly 30 percent to 60 percent. Support was at a mere 12 percent in 1969 when Gallup first began asking Americans about it. Attitudes on moral issues have also relaxed greatly. Not 10 years ago, Democrats were ambivalent at best about gay marriage. That chapter is now closed.
