Well as reported yesterday Rep. Charles Rangel (D-New York) is looking to reinstate the draft, a system that has laid dormant since the Vietnam war. However the democrats oppose. ncoming Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday the House Democratic Party leadership would not support a call by Rep. Charles Rangel to reinstate the draft.
Any member of Congress who supported the reinstatement of the draft would be commiting political suicide in terms of reelection in 2008. I am not worried neither should you.
