Sometimes it's for the colleges. I was at a grocery store line waiting for hooyo and a lady saw me with a USC sweater when I was in middle school and started talking about if I wanna go there. She said sign up as a reserve and you dont have to go to war. My mom came back and got mad when I told her what she said
Madoow American who her man died in the Lamu attacks by El-Kebab goes in on Kenya

Yeah, I was visiting. Most colleges and high schools at the very least have ads, if not a recruiter or recruitment events for people who’re interested. Some of them even knock on doors. In high school, there’s ROTC and for some people enlisting is the natural next move.
I would be mad too if u was your mom, since you were only in middle school.
My disagreement with rkelly is from feeling bad for them, like they have it bad. It’s a solid choice for a lot of people, and not bad at all, plus I think it helps people develop some positive habits and pays their way in life.
Would you really trust the germans to help the tho? Either way the germans didn't respect races they deemed inferior. If anything they would have only helped the arabs ottomans if they won.They secretly love white people they pretend they don't
Germans twice gave them option to join them each time they refused in the same army they fought for they were getting called ni gger while fighting against germans

Let me make it simple for you
How many of the new recruits are motivated by financial incentives such as future schooling ? Would you not say about 60%
Therefore we can be certain that the children of the wealthy do not want or entertain being in the armed forces. How dare would they even think of that when Yale and Princeton is waiting for them.
Wasn’t Trump a dodger ? Didn’t his dad bribed a doctor?
How about Bush jr..you remember what he did too?
How about Clinton ...do you even know what he did

I’m not lying about legacy. Only something like 12 or 13 out of 45 US presidents haven’t served in the military, and fishy discharges and dodges remain huge controversies in the news cycles. It still means something to Americans that a presidential candidate served in USAF.
And I’m not denying the benefits to working classes. It’s as if you don’t want them there. I’d argue strongly that they should be there.

It’s not like I’m against them. I’d actually advocate that a lot of these cursed madoows join it because it disciplines them. Mind you that these men come from fatherless homes. The armed forces install discipline and self respect.
What I want to drill in your thick atheists head is that majority of the armed forces population is made up of folks desperate for future financial help.
Remember John McCain, a hero from Vietnam lost to Obama, a lawyer from Chicago. Or John Kerry, a war hero, losing to Bush in 2004, someone whose family influence saved him from serving
Serving in the military hasn't been useful as part of a political portfolio since Dwight Eisenhower. The military has been reduced to taking destitute children who are too poor to pay for higher education walaal

John McCain was a legitimate soldier but John Kerry was later exposed as having been away from combat whereby his family influence allowed him to be stationed far from the bloodshed.
Bush jr outright avoided it.
JazakAllah khair. True - the point still stands though that in 2004 when his military career hadn't been exposed while Bush's record was known, Kerry still ended up losing

I am not contesting that lie of argument
I’m here to discredit my secret crush @VixR’s line of thinking that this is an armed forces of the evenly divided when it is actually an army of the disadvantaged in society, the downtrodden

Have I reached the depth yet
By the way please adopt my new honorific name. I am an admirer of the man. You wouldn’t know who he was I gather. He was a peasant from the Urals of the Russian empire who fcuked his way to the queen of mother Russia
It’s basically me trying to get to you. Consider me a peasant in your presence

I’m not saying a non-military candidate cannot be elected. I’m saying it’s still incredibly relevant, and it is.
I know he was, but you’re no Rasputin. At least, you have better role models than when you called yourself Rkelly.Have I reached the depth yet

I’m not saying it’s even. I never said it was. Nothing’s even. Your first argument was along racial lines. I’ve seen them in crowds enough to know that’s not the case. Your second argument is class, which never argued for evenness. more filled with working class, but I think the benefits are great/necessary and it’s a solid choice for someone who needs help paying for school, but it’s still also legacy based. Well-to-do families still very much join USAF. You’re trying so hard to make this guy a victim of the US, when the only thing he’s a victim of is Al-Shabab.

Well to do families bribe to get their kids into the more prestigious category of the armed forces. That’s a fact.
All I’m saying is that there’s a class warfare in the armed forces. The undesirables in society are the frontline soldiers.

So now your argument is that they do join, but they join “more elite categories” lol. How many times are you going to muddy your stance?
BTW, although fatherhood is valuable. Most men with fathers still don’t have the discipline and other perks of behavior the military instills them. I saw the transformation myself and he had a father, so don’t demean AAs for fatherlessness at my expense, especially when many Somali fathers are absent as well.
I thought like you that the American army was mostly filled with the poor/minorities but after checking the stats VixR is right. The US army is mostly comprised of white men. As for class:
"Most members of the military come from middle-class neighborhoods. A neighborhood affluence study found that the middle three quintiles were overrepresented among enlisted recruits, while the top and bottom quintiles were underrepresented".
The US elections has been a personality contest for the last 30 years. Whoever has a bigger personality won the race.
Trump vs H. Clinton
Obama vs McCain/Romney
Bush 2 vs Gore/ Kerry
B. Clinton vs Bush 1/Dole

They must think needing help to pay for school = poor. School is expensive in the US. Enlisting is arguably smarter than taking loans. But it’s still not the major reason for enlisting.
