I find it incredibly fascinating those that have served are all democrats. That's something to think about. Maybe you all really are right.

I guess I don't count. I am not a Democrat. I am not a Independent. I am, and always have been a Republican.

I will say though that the older I get, the more socially liberal I become, but the more fiscal conservative i become.

Describes my views as I age. Sadly that combination is difficul--not impossible--to find in candidates.

based on my handle, you might have guessed I served but only lightly

A DMG 1972 I had one weeks vacation before I reported to Officer's Basic to do my 90 days in Indianapolis. Vietnam was over and there were way too many 2nd Lt's so I came back and joined a local reserve unit

however, being a Distinguished Military Grad, I was offered a West Point equivalent commission; however, my now ex did not want to see the world. To this day I wonder what if. I could have been along side Collin Powell who also was a DMG

Well, I wasn't quite so noble. I will admitt to this day that when I got my draft notice, they took me "kicking and screaming'. If I would have had a choice, I doubt I would have went.

But like thousands, I went. And if you think about it, we "draftees" are a dying breed. I will be 66 soon, the draft ended about 5-6 years after I was inducted, (or "abducted"), so one day we will read a headline that says, "last draftee dies".

I hope it's me.
