Newark Mayor Corey Booker said last Monday that he supports medical marijuana in New Jersey and that he wants to "go beyond that," and move toward a complete overhaul of state and federal drug policy.

Booker's comments came during an appearance on HuffPost Live in which he discussed his political future, including a possible run for New Jersey governor in 2013.

Booker has been an outspoken critic of federal drug policy in the past.
