Gee, you must really be old. Since you know "what the Founders had in mind, of course, but on my more cynical days, I suspect the country would be in better hands." But, don't worry, I won't ask you to catalogue what Founders you are talking about and what their various positions were. Keep in mind some familiarity with the many published disputations of the Founders does exist and is available.

And, for your clarification, this writer never established military service as a requirement for having an opinion on military tactics, strategy, or operations. I did ask Evil if he had any military experience since he expressed such strong militaristic drives and demands that he was willing to place on the youth of our nation. Demands that I feel should be placed only under the most severe conditions 0f threat to the nation.

Since you choose to answer for evil it would appear the shoe indeed does fit. In your case, I fully understand your qualifications for war policy---I have seen the Holiday Inn Express ads on tv. And it is my experience that an effective swimming coach can only do his job, if somewhere in his past he has personally not been afraid to get wet.
