't say anything about
*   cigarettes." [what???]

Proposition 215 passed into law.

It was a major repudiation of Drug War hysteria.

A major repudiation of the Schedule I Substances classification of marijuana.
DEA: "Drugs in this schedule are those that have no accepted medical use in
      the United States and have a high abuse potential."

And just why did the citizens of California have to pass a ballot to
approve medical use of marijuana?

*   "The Emperor Wears No Clothes", by Jack Herer, 1992, ISBN 1-878125-00-1
*   
*   From 1979 to 1989 (when the law lapsed), California had a law that was
*   supposed to help people get cannabis for medical reasons. Patric Mayers,
*   with his testimony and personal lobbying, was instrumental in getting the
*   California Legislature to pass the state law allowing cannabis for medical
*   use. Mayer's life was saved in 1976 when his doctors illegally advised him
*   to use marijuana for his chemotherapy nausea. He weighed only 93 pounds.
*   
*   However, first as state Attorney General then governor, George Deukmejian
*   deliberately refused to carry out the program passed by California
