From a speech by Obama
But it’s also important that a president speaks to military service as an obligation not just of some, but of many. You know, I traveled, obviously, a lot over the last 19 months. And if you go to small towns, throughout the Midwest or the Southwest or the South, every town has tons of young people who are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. That’s not always the case in other parts of the country, in more urban centers. And I think it’s important for the president to say, this is an important obligation. If we are going into war, then all of us go, not just some.
95% of the people are middle class by Obama’s reckoning, so it make logical sense that 95% of the military enlistee’s should come from that group. Both Binden’s and Palins kids are on the ground in Iraq, my guess both from the other 5%. This is a straw dog.
