In 2001, former Kentucky Governor Louie B. Nunn explained why after learning the facts, he decided to support reintroducing industrial hemp as a legal crop in the United States. In his  commentary published by The Lexington Herald-Leader, Gov. Nunn  wrote that "I was opposed to the legalization of hemp for years because I had been of the opinion that hemp was marijuana. I was shortsighted in my thinking, and I was wrong." He explained that it is important to replace "misleading and intimidating rhetoric" with the facts, pointing out that industrial hemp "is not a drug, and never was."
