I agree, if there are better candidates than her it would be fair enough... but
they shouldn't discard her because of her recent admitted drug taking. It's not
like she got caught doing a Lance Armstrong or anything remotely like that.
She's only 21 and most young people end up dabbling in recrational drugs around
that time in their lives. She should have known better but I would be
disappointed if her absence was merely down to the marijuana.
