Qoutes on hemp from US presidents

I just looked at the petition at www.minawear.com/about-us and saw we had reached a milestone of 750 signatures, with a new goal of 1,000. The ulitmate goal is to get 25,000. The it goes to the President. Signer #750, Samsun from Berkeley CA, left 5 quotes from former presidents about hemp.

“Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere.”
 – George Washington
“Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country.”
– Thomas Jefferson
“Two of my favorite things are sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe of sweet hemp, and playing my Hohner harmonica.”
– Abraham Lincoln
“We shall, by and by, want a world of hemp more for our own consumption.”
 – John Adams
“The greatest service which can be rendered any country is the add a useful plant to its culture!”
  -Thomas Jefferson
