Also - even with the bungled joke - Kerry is right. How come nobody is talking about that? the predominance of the US military is from a poor minority background with highschool or less as education.

There may not be a draft anymore, but the economic climate certainly has allowed the military to get its hands on the same pool of candidates.

So what should be changed and why?

I guess I don't understand the argument.
