The following is a list of links that explain the truth of Bill and Hillary Clinton with regards to their continued support for keeping people who use Crack Cocaine in prisons.
Bill never would reduce the crack cocaine that was asked for by many during his administration. Yesterday the supreme court gave permission to judges to have disgression in sentencing guidlines.
Clinton Signs Bill To Disapprove of Equalizing Crack-Powder Cocaine Sentences
On October 30, President Clinton signed a bill that blocks the U.S. Sentencing Commission amendments to equalize the penalties for crack and powder cocaine from taking effect
(see "Congress Nixes Amendments to Sentencing Guidelines on Cocaine, Money Laundering," 58 CrL 1086, October 25, 1995).
In a statement Clinton said the U.S. is making strides in combatting crime and violence.
"We have to send a constant message to our children that drugs are illegal, drugs are dangerous, drugs may cost you your life -- and the penalties for dealing drugs are severe," he said.
"I am not going to let anyone who peddles drugs get the idea that the cost of doing business is going down."
SENTENCING December 1995
Judges given leeway in crack sentencing
By MARK SHERMAN, Associated Press Writer Mon Dec 10, 6:25 PM ET
WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court, weighing in on an issue with racial undertones, ruled Monday that federal judges have broad leeway to impose shorter prison terms for crack cocaine
in a case that bolsters the argument for reducing the difference in sentences for crack and powder cocaine.
The court, by 7-2 votes in the crack case and one other involving drugs, upheld more lenient sentences imposed by judges who rejected federal sentencing guidelines as too harsh.
The decision was announced ahead of a vote scheduled for Tuesday by the U.S. Sentencing Commission, which sets the guidelines,
that could cut prison time for as many as 19,500 federal inmates convicted of crack crimes.etcetc

""at the npr black brown forum""With Her Eye On Nov. '08, Polls Dictate Clinton Crime Policy
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/celeste-fremon/with-her-eye-on-nov-08_b_75207.html ""When asked about her own policy,
"""Clinton said she agreed with the feds' recommendation for equalizing the sentences,
but she opposed making the sentencing changes retroactive"".
"I have problems with retroactivity," she said. "It's something a lot of communities will be concerned about as well."
Obama, Edwards, Richarson, Dodd, Kucinich said they were in favor of the sentencing change being applied to those already serving time.
Now before we get to the reality of how such a sentencing change would play out, let's parse what Clinton said:
Although she agrees that disproportionate punishments for crack versus cocaine are wrong for the future,
she doesn't feel that past disproportionate punishments are wrong.""
