Will the Draft Become the Most Important Issue in 2005?

I am neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet. I even work for a “non-prophet” organization. Yet I will go out on a limb and make the following prediction: If Bush is reelected and our empire-building continues, and if reenlistment in the armed forces dries up, as seems likely following the fiasco in Iraq, more warm bodies will be needed in a hurry to fight the nation’s wars, and the call from Washington to resume the draft will become deafening.
