Why debate the bleeding fucking obvious?
Yes, if Bush is reselected, the draft will be reinstated. One only needs to comprehend basic mathematics to figure this out. Just compare Iraq to Vietnam and crunch the numbers, something yours truly has already done:
At the height of the Vietnam War, we had 543,400 [soldiers] deployed to an area half the size of New Mexico [that being South Vietnam] and still lost. That being the case, didn't the Bush administration mislead the American public when it told us they only needed 100,000+ troops to secure an area nearly the size of California?
I should add that the 543,000 figure was solely US soldiers. If soldiers from other countries and South Vietnam's pathetic ARVN military are factored in, then the figure jumps to 1,000,000+ total soldiers in South Vietnam at the height of the Vietnam War.
South Vietnam is about half the size of New Mexico, while Iraq is roughly the size of California, and we don't even have 150,000 total soldiers in the country. There's no possible way we can secure Iraq without quadrupling the amount of soldiers we have there.
Furthermore, the draft boards were hiring last November. You know, just in case!
Will there be a draft if Bush is reelected? The answer is a resounding "Duuuuuhhh!"
