Former Senator Mike Gravel. Hes the one who did a one-man filibuster in the Senate for 5 months in 1971 and forced the end of the draft. Hes firmly opposed to another one.
He also has just released his Withdrawal from Iraq Act, which is a tough act that would require tough tactics to be made into law.
None of the Congressional Democrats are touching it though, because they want to keep the war going so they can use it against the Republicans. Sure sure, they pass these weak non-binding resolutions that are ignored and then they act surprised when Bush vetoes their timetable bills, but they know what theyre doing. Bush said over a year ago that he would not get us out of Iraq as long as he was in office. If any of the Democrats were serious about ending the war, they would be working their asses off to get it done!
But no, they see a guaranteed political win in all this carnage and destruction, and I think thats disgusting. Gravel is the only one with any integrity and any principles.
And let me tell you something, I dont trust any of the other Democrats (except maybe Kucinich) to end the war. Especially not Clinton, I wouldnt trust her with a dog I didnt like.

Illinois State Senator Barack Obama no longer purely voted for "stay beginning abortions" yet actual subsidized and supported this legislations. in actuality for the period of his careers as the two a State Senator in Illinois and a usa Senator from Illinois, this grow to be between the few themes on which he actual voted. many times he in no way even confirmed up for a vote and while he did, Obama voted "modern-day". On November 6, the yank human beings might desire to vote Obama "Absent", and make him a one-term President. NOBAMA IN 2012!

All the Democrats, so I suspect all the Republicans as well, as far as the draft!
