Any thoughts on this teaching being a conflict for a Commander in Chief?
On a serious note, since you asked, I think an intellectually honest person who espoused a creed of pacifism would not seek the office of CinC of the military. If I am correct about that, one must conclude that the pacifist is either being dishonest about his faith, or his willingness to fully execute the duties of the office, both of which I find troubling.
