Justice Bill O'Neill leaves the bench to enter the race for governor

Former Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O'Neill resigned from the state's highest court last week to formally enter the race for governor. He joins a crowded Democratic field, but intends to set himself apart with sharply drawn positions such as legalizing marijuana and using the tax proceeds to fund addiction treatment services.  He talked with ideastream's Rick Jackson about why he’s running and how he intends to spur job creation in Ohio.
