Due to his admitted drug abuse history, should Obama be required to undergo drug testing if elected?

Theo N asked:

Since Obama freely admits that he used cocaine and other drugs, and statistics show that 75% of those who use cocaine become addicted while only 25% are able to kick the habit …. should Obama be required to have random drug tests to hold public office? The military requires random testing on soldiers, and even McDonald’s test their employees.

He frequently and consistently engaged in drug use throughout his adolescence. It wasn’t just a one-time thing.

Not all people that use drugs are incompetent. Some of our greatest thinkers used often. many scholars believe that the world religions were inspired by vision inducing drugs (okay, maybe that wasn’t a good example).

So no, I don’t believe he or anyone else should have to. It’s an invasion of privacy.

Well, we, as citizens must undergo drug testing to work for any company, including the government, so I think it should be mandatory for the most powerful position in America as well. Why shouldn’t they?

I have NEVER used any substances, legal or illegal. But I do know the difference between use and abuse.
Do not worry, anyone in public office will quickly be exposed when using or abusing.
