>> or sons and daughters of presidents, senators and congressmen who are "volunteering." Is it that they don't feel as patriotic as those with less advantages in life?

Actually the sons of ANTI-WAR senators did volunteer for VietNam. They wanted to remove the political liability from their parents of using their position to avoid danger.

The real cowards are the ones who used the position of their PRO-WAR parents to avoid the risk.
