Rangel is a racially minded individual and when he wants college guys(and girls) drafted he is talking about drafting whites. In his eyes minorities are low income and whites are privileged. He is in the same mind set that Obama's preacher is in(forgot his name).
Well said. Great post, and very true. I would rep. you twice on that if I could.
His name is Wright, Rev. Wright. He said "Damn America, hell, I say God Damn America". Obama's pastorand guidance counselor. Ever wonder where Obozo's radical ideas come from ?
Rangel is just another racist P.O.S wrapped in skin with a big mouth. After they caught him stealing money from his district, they elected him again. Go figure that..
Rangel, (just like his a-hole buddy Harry Reid) is one of the best examples yet for setting term limits. He's just another case of the tail wagging the dog...

Reason: space
I see the word war tossed around very easily, is this not a "war" on terror. There was a time when if we dropped bombs on a country and sent in troops that would constitute a war. We as a nation would participate in that war not just less than 1 %.
One solution needed is to update the structure of the military to the current world reality and our desire to launch preemptive strikes in foreign lands under the veil of terrorism. We need to divide the military into two departments. Just as we have now the Department of Defense we also need the Department of Offense. The DOD should have a draft and the DOO should be volunteers.
Every good sports team knows the benefit of both. War is becoming our national pastime replacing all other sports. The DOD would be used for defense of the nation and authorized by Congress to be deployed if necessary overseas. The DOO could be wielded by the President for a limited time say 90 days to play Whack A Mole around the globe. No reason to drag out the destruction for years as proposed currently. Put the hammer on the nail. Come home for R&R and resupply. Get ready for the next round or a different opponent as required.
Lots of benefits to this structure if you think about it. I won't list them all here. Structured like this puts us in the game on a national level with the full attention of the population. Congress will be held accountable and voted out when they don't represent the will of the people. Not even the puppet masters will save them. Go team USA !!!!
You will never win a war on terrorism, poverty, drugs. They are by their very nature a war on mankind. If you declare these types of wars and are serious about winning them. Then you must kill every human on the planet to be sure you have won. The last man alive might just sit down and smoke a joint savoring the victory. We can't have that. Not if we want to win.
Rangel: Bring back the draft before launching air strikes in Syria
What does he plan to do with the draftees?
