No Marijuana does not clog arteries. Smoked or ingested the THC is stored in fat cells and the only way that it could clog arteries is if the fat cells clog them which is not work of THC its the work of the fat cells. The largest study of the health effects of marijuana to date was done by Kaiser Permanente. They studied the health records of 65,000 patients over a number of years. They found no significant differences between the health histories of those who smoked pot versus those who did not smoke marijuana.

Marijuana and Mortality

http://www.druglibrary.org/crl/aging/sidney-01.html Every major government commission report on marijuana from around the world over the last 100 years has concluded that marijuana prohibition was based on racism, ignorance, and nonsense. They all said the marijuana laws should have been repealed long ago because they do more harm than good. They all said that marijuana is not a significant threat to health in any respect.

A layman's answer: No! It is well known that marijuana use raises heart rate. That being said, how can it be good for the heart? Like being found not guilty does not mean innocent, likewise, not being bad for the heart does not necessarily mean being good for the heart. Perhaps a different answer to a rephrased question.
