Pot, weed, refer, ganja, hash, marijuana. It’s been called a gateway drug, a destroyer of youth, and medicine. With states fighting to legalize medical marijuana and keep the federal government from raiding crops and dispensaries, this issue has moved to the forefront of states rights. Texas does not allow medical marijuana, but two new bills have been introduced to the house for the current session that would change that. Where do you line up on this issue? We talked to people on the street, Willie Nelson, Ray Benson, Josh Schimberg of NORML, and Ron Paul to see where they line up on the issue of medical marijuana. Get involved! We want to hear from you on this. Contact your Representative to let them know where you stand on this issue.

[ Who is Dr. Russell Blaylock? ]

Dr. Blaylock is a board certified neurosurgeon, author and lecturer. He attended the LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans and completed his general surgical internship and neurosurgical residency at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, South Carolina. During his residency he ran the neurology program for one year and did a fellowship in neurosurgery after his residency. For the past 25 years he has practiced neurosurgery in addition to having a nutritional practice. He recently retired from both practices to devote full time to nutritional studies and research.

During his residency training he worked with the eminent neurosurgeon, Dr. Ludwig Kempe. Together they developed the transcallosal removal of intraventricular tumors, which is still used today. Dr. Blaylock presented their cases utilizing this technique to the Congress of Neurological Surgeons. They also developed the ventriculolymphatic shunt in the treatment of hydrocephalus. In addition, they conducted neuroanatomical studies together with the aim of developing improved approaches in vascular intracranial surgery.

He has continued a close personal friendship with Dr. Kempe over the ensuing years, who at age 91 continues to study neuroanatomy, ornithology and is an editor of a major journal on medieval studies. Of special note, Dr. Kempe climbed the Himalayan mountains at age 87, a testament of his robust health and enduring love of adventure..

It was during his residency that Dr. Blaylock did much of the primary work on intraventricular monitoring of craniocerebral trauma patients, which was reported in the scientific literature. He also worked closely with Dr. Peter Jannetta during Dr. Jennettas early research on vascular compression of the cranial nerves as a cause of trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm. Dr. Blaylock was one of the first neurosurgeons to utilize high-intensity nutritional supplementation in craniocerebral trauma patients, which met with great success.

Reason.tv’s Ted Balaker sat down with Whitman to discuss his new Cato Institute policy analysis, coauthored with Raymond Raad, “Bending the Productivity Curve: Why America Leads the World in Medical Innovation.”

Whether it’s Nobel laureates in medical fields or the most important recent medical innovations, Whitman and Raad find that the U.S. has contributed more than any other nation, and in some cases, more than all nations combined. Whitman cites some key factors that account for America’s innovative ways, and warns that if America adopts a more centrally planned health system we may not only innovate less but we might not know what innovations we’re missing.

Interview shot by Alex Manning and Hawk Jensen; it was edited by Manning. Approximately 10 minutes.
