Kristin Davis, previously known as the "Manhattan Madam" is running for governor of New York. According to her interview with "High Times Magazine" her decision to run was in part due to her unjust imprisonment following the Eliot Spitzer incident. She is the Anti-Prohibition Party nominee and claims that if she is voted governor she would strive to legalize not only prostitution but also the recreational use of marijuana among other victimless crimes.She states that although she isn't a user of marijuana she feels strongly about the peoples freedom to indulge. She also acknowledges the fact that the pro's that would come from legalization or decriminalization would greatly out number the cons, if there are any at all.
At first hand the thought of her governing the state of New York might seem a little sketchy, but in the contrary. She is more then qualified. Davis graduated high school Valedictorian at the age of 15, has a Bachelor's Degree in Business from St. Mary's College, and a Masters in Psychology at The Saybrook Graduate Institute. She's also an impressive business women.
Now the questions are; Is she sufficiently qualified to become the face of legalization in New York? Will her fame brought by the Spitzer incident be enough to market her beyond previous liberal candidates?
