All signs point to a DRAFT under a Gramps/Gidget administration |

McCain in on record talking about how there will be more wars. Palin talks about this being God's war and she is LOVED by the Neocons.
Fact: There is NOT enough military personnel to support further military action. RETIRED military personnel are being recalled to fill the shortage that is already being experienced.
McCain's messages are Country First and Call to Service. Both candidates have sons in the military (though how much action they will see being sons of such high profile candidates is questionable). They will use this to support first a campaign to increase military enlistments. Once this fails, and it will, they will bring back the draft and argue that they are not asking of the American Public, something they haven't already given (loved ones going into battle).
Every person that could be subject to the draft should run, not walk, to the nearest voter registration office.
Bottom Line: Gramps/Gidget - bring on the Apocalypse.
On edit: I forgot to mention that McCain is on record AGREEING with a woman who said we need a draft.

1. I am working on a Youtube video for this and have what I think is a solid script. |

I hope to get this done THIS week when I am done with the music. If I can't get it done I am going to send it to someone else who CAN do it and get it on TV. I can't get it on TV, just on Youtube...
Maybe I can do both, though. Does anyone have any idea how I'd get this to someone fairly competent in making TV commercials, by any chance? Is there a list of groups on our side who will take on this kind of thing? :)

2. Why are you refering to her as Gidget? |
|
I would really like to know.
The real Gidget is nothing like this woman.

5. Because the image that name represents to many older votes. |
|
They might like Gidget, but they wouldn't want her to be commander-in-chief.
And, like Gidget, Palin is not qualified to be a heart beat away from the Presidency.
It's a very powerful label, I think that's why some people try to discourage its use.

is a "powerful label." I think it is a slander against Kathy Zuckerman who was a very talented and respected athlete.

In the event any officeholder promotes the draft, his/her own family members must be first on the list. This is a simple way to: 1. test their commitment to "country first", 2. weed out those pesky little wars started over something stupid like oil, and 3. end the classism inherent in the draft systems of the past.:patriot:
