It should be the same as whatever the drinking age is, and I believe the drinking age should be 18.

I'm guessing he's referring to the fact that if medical marijuana is legally sold then there's now a bunch of legal marijuana dealers who can set up lobbying for further decriminalization the same way all business groups have lobbies now.

The fact that the medical marijuana groups actually opposed full legalization in every state that's voted on it so far has obviously not been taken into account.

It has been taken into account plenty by journalists.  In fact, a number of stories have been written about the fact that the marijuana growers associations in California are some of the biggest opponents of legalization.  I can remember such stories appearing for at least four years (and my memory is pretty bad, with all the weed that I smoked as a high school student, so they have probably been around much longer.)

Taken into account by some people of course, but not Adam clearly. Of course Adam is also someone who believes DARE propaganda.
