Granholm doesn't support medical marijuana proposal

AP- A proposal to legalize marijuana for medical purposes does not have the support of Governor Jennifer Granholm.
Granholm says she is not in favor of opening the door to legalization of marijuana.
A citizen-led measure that would legalize marijuana for some medical purposes is pending in the state Legislature. If lawmakers don't approve the measure within 40 days, the proposal will be placed on the November ballot.
The Michigan initiative would allow patients to grow and use small amounts of marijuana for relief from pain associated with cancer, AIDS and other diseases.
A doctor's approval or recommendation would be required to use the drug.
