Teenagers are not equipped intellectually to see all the ramifications of their decisions and are easily impressed by GI Joe war stories. The military enlistment age is 18 (17 with parental consent). The same age as for voting. Do you oppose military recruitment of 18 year olds? If so, do you oppose their voting as well? BTW liberals oppose military recruiting on college campuses as well, where people are older. I suppose you think teens shouldn't be allowed to get abortions without parental consent either? GOPers are pro.....their people don't do the actual fighting. The military normally votes majority Republican. And its been that way for a long time. Democrats say it'll be different next time, but they always say that. washingtonpost.com Why shouldn't the military be majority Republican? Liberal Democrats disparage and oppose enlistment.
