Oh no, now I feel like I am getting old. Im closer to the cutoff for joing without the governments help then joining because I get drafted.  However, if the papers appeared in the mailbox I would go. If it got to the point where I the draft was in effect and I was sure that I was going to get drafted, I would probably just go sign up with the Air Force. I have been thinking of it for quite some time.

I would move without thinking twice. I love our country. I think Saddam is an ass. However I have big dreams for my life, and no trigger-happy conservative is going to delegate my life. As a matter of fact anyone other than myself, and God, trying to delegate my life will have a different war on their hands.

My brother emailed a congress woman in CA about this situation - she said there's no need for a draft at this time.
I don't think it's right to draft when the country is so divided on this topic.
I, personally, would not dodge the draft. I am not convinced of the reasons we're in Iraq, but I would go if I had to. I would ask to do something medical - I'm going to start PA (physician assistant) school in the fall.
Also, I'd much rather be in Afghanastan. I feel much more threatened my Afghanis than I do Iraqis in terms of terrorism.
That's just one young man's opinion.

Thanks for sharing the quote.

Seems like you want to blame something else and set yourself up for failure before even making a decision on something you "desire" to do, to join a service. Also looks like you are afraid of what others think if you fail because if you're drafted you "could say" it's not your fault that you failed.
It's called a fear of failure. Everybody has it but it comes down to how you deal with it to really do want you want in your life.
