Why did Romney evade the draft during the Vietnam War?

I followed all of the rules and went to 'nam twice. I'll never vote for someone who used deferments to avoid the draft.

It demonstrates the failure of a society that would continually select their "commander in chief" from a pool of soft handed desk jockeys that had never seen a goddamned battle field. The failure is ours. It is real easy for the Bushs', the Clintons, the Obamas and Romney's of the world to treat the lives of young patriots as a commodity.

To hell with all of them and to hell with everybody that perpetuates this nonsense.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
