I do believe that we are the only country that doesn't make its citizens do any mandatory military time. I think that should change. It does a person good to serve some time in the military, learn a little discipline, see the world and learn a skill. I'm sure that somebody would scream it violates the constitution in some way though. So yes, I would be all for the draft.

We wouldn't have to draft if the reassignments from Germany, Italy, Okinawa, Japan, and Korea were stepped up to a more realistic date. I think the illegal aliens could help in this area, as long as they are not already felons and are in the ages of 18-32.

There are many problems in this proposition. First, many illegals do not have adequate English literacy, making their usefulness to the military scant at best.
Secondly, there are enormous political problems in having an army of mercenaries. One of the things that serves to legitimize the current war in Iraq is that there is no draft; all participants are volunteers, thus it is difficult to make the claim that people are being enslaved in the service of evil. Using foreigners to staff the U.S. military would be disasterous. It speaks to the dubiousness of the military exploits that we don't actually want to get involved ourselves. There is a saying, "Anything worth doing is worth doing yourself." Well, anything worth fighting for is worth fighting for yourself - not hiring somebody else to do it. Somebody who is in the fight not for the "cause" but for his own future citizenship.
Go on to other ideas. This one is too ridiculous to remain in your capable mind.

A Draft would violate the Thirteenth Amendment.

Draft....it will be a repeat like Vietnam. Raise the pay of the military and attractive bonuses, especially while serving in a combat zone. How many "combat veterans" will come back and melt into the slums of our large cities and get involved in street gangs?

Illegals already serve in the military to gain citizenship. There is no need to "daft" them.

I believe this question is daft. So in essence the "daft" never left.
