No.
President Bush is a man who stubbornly sticks to the course he feels is right - regardless of the personal consequences.

Well, first of all, I do not believe that our draft is set up for women. Only males have to register for the draft. It has been that way for a long time.
Also, lets say the son or daughter of a president were called for the draft. First of all, I believe that they would be protected from being placed in combat situations. An enemy capturing the daughter of a president would be too big of a risk. The enemy would try to use this person as a bargaining chip. The best way to avoid this situation is to not have the son or daughter of a president (or even an ex-president) placed in a combat situation. That would be good sense in a situation like this.
Also, the president does have control of the military. Commander in chief and all that. Don't you think that he would just use his powers to make sure his daughters were placed on duty in the US somewhere?

The United States of America has an ALL-voluntary military.
- George W. Bush is the most powerful man in the world. To have his children there would be a threat to national security.
-They would have a huge target on their back
-Our brave soldiers would be in great danger
-Our soldiers would be too busy protecting them than to do their jobs.
I am so sick of people saying that our President's daughters need to fight in Iraq. I really didn't think people were that ignorant.
There won't ever be a draft again. The military has this "little" thing called the IRR.

A lame, pathetic, and totally uninspired and unimaginative attempt to blast Bush...just another lame attempt in a never-ending series of lame attempts.
Don't you have anything more important to worry about, or a REAL question worth asking instead of this drivel? I mean, really.....

Absolutely he would...this is the same reason why Tony Blair is pulling troops.

No. Since this is a ridiculously absurd question to begin with.
But if it were to happen, he still wouldn't. They are called principles. They don't change with the wind.
Cheers.

No because first off the draft would only consider men over the age of 18 and under the age of 42. His daughters are women. Duh

Not sure, but I believe that he wants all of the war spoils and none of the personal cost/risk.
