I love Rick as a travel guy, but listening to his opinion on the topic of legalization has just as much value as Rosie O'Donnel talking about foreign policy. My suggestion to Steve? Stick to your knitting! Your opinion on TRAVEL I will listen to intently. Your opinion on MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION? Not so much!

Steves information fuels my first trip to Europe, he is a wealth of information.
He is 100% correct on his views about the legislation of Morality...he could be a bit more forceful with this information, but I don't think he wants to offend anyone. Great show.

What an amazing presentation. I definitely took a turn from his book and I refuse to go on traditional guided tours. I've met some interesting people by going where the locals go or just walking without a plan. It is very much a political act to interact with people as if you're there to get to know them. Thanks Rick!

I have great appreciation for many forums I've viewed on Fora, but I felt the need to register because I want to comment about how much I LOVE this presentation. As a fellow global wanderer, a human rights activist, a documentary filmmaker, and a person who considers herself a global citizen..... I just want to say that this speech is something of a masterpiece. I am very inspired and I've learned a lot watching this. Thanks Rick Steves!

Rick for Congress. Seriously, he is a man of the world and a real Renaissance Man. I would love to go live in Europe. Frankly, America sucks unless you're rich.

That was a great program overall. It's easily one of my favorites on Fora at the moment.

I never would have expected Rick Steves to be a spokesman for the legalization of marijuana. Is this being streamed from some kind of Bizarro internet?
