You are very wrong. The Air Force for example will not accpet you if you do not have a high school diploma. Period. No waiver no excuses. You don't have a high school diploma from an attendance based high school that is also accredited, you cannot join.
Also the military cannot target any specific minority. The Military has specific targets for minorities and they aim to keep the same percentage of specific minorities in the military taht exist in the rest of the united states. They are actually graded on how well they can recruit minorities to maintain a balance in the Military.
People now a days are less patriotic and have very little respect for our country. No matter who is in office from this point on Americans will take it for granted that somebody else will go off and fight for the country. This is what it has come down to.
