I don't know. Make going into the military (whether it be active duty or guard) the only way anyone can get into college (unless their parents can afford it or the kid gets a great full ride scholarship) and you won't need a draft.

In other words, do what Bush is doing, keep cutting education and kids will have no choice if they want to go to college. Of course if he decides to fight another front, then even that won't be enough so we'll have to have a draft.

The only great thing I can say about this is, I heard all week how in a recent survey Ohio voters say they will vote out their representatives if they cut state education anymore (I'd venture to say they probably feel the same way federally although the reports I heard didn't say that). This is one of the first signs the pendulum is truly starting to come back left. It's also a sign that Taft is pretty much a goner and we'll get a Dem in office.
