Answer:

President Richard Nixon

Explanation:

The war on drugs is a largely unsuccessful campaign,[6] led by the U.S. federal government, of drug prohibition, military aid, and military intervention, with the aim being the reduction of the illegal drug trade in the United States.[7][8][9][10] The initiative includes a set of drug policies that are intended to discourage the production, distribution, and consumption of psychoactive drugs that the participating governments and the UN have made illegal. The term was popularized by the media shortly after a press conference given on June 18, 1971, by President Richard Nixon—the day after publication of a special message from President Nixon to the Congress on Drug Abuse Prevention and Control—during which he declared drug abuse "public enemy number one". That message to the Congress included text about devoting more federal resources to the "prevention of new addicts, and the rehabilitation of those who are addicted", but that part did not receive the same public attention as the term "war on drugs".[11][12][13] However, two years prior to this, Nixon had formally declared a "war on drugs" that would be directed toward eradication, interdiction, and incarceration.[14] Today, the Drug Policy Alliance, which advocates for an end to the War on Drugs, estimates that the United States spends $51 billion annually on these initiatives.[15]

Tell me about legal studies
den301095 [7]

Legal studies is a good path if you are interested in law :)

Not only that, but you can use it for public administration, public affairs, business, and political science. It is not the easiest, but it is worth it if you are interested in anything of the above. Studying law is as hard as you make it. In my opinion, it is definitely worth it due to the fact that its a great stepping stone for high level government positions.
