    While even Darrell Castle agrees that this bill’s chance of passage “is close to zero” it is still annoying that it does not get mentioned in the mainstream media. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised given the bill’s author and the prevailing media bias but nonetheless I still find it annoying.

    Hasn’t Rangel submitted this legislation every term?

    Pretty much. But no one seems to ask why.

    I’ve seen him asked why. He makes an argument for his position. He believes it helps integrate the races and classes by giving them a shared experience and helps discipline young people. In a nutshell.

    Strange. I thought I remembered him opposing the draft some 40 years ago just because he believed it to be racist and applied unfairly against minorities.

    Dunno. If he was, he changed his mind.
