As part of his 100 day plan to change America, John Kerry will propose a comprehensive service plan that includes requiring mandatory service for high school students

And to think the Dems are getting after Bush with bogus allegations about a draft...

This one is my favorite:

100,000 Older Americans in Service
As President, John Kerry will defend and strengthen vital programs such as Medicare and Social Security, but he also believes on calling on America's seniors to give their time, experience, and expertise to an America that needs their help. As President, John Kerry would create the Retired Not Tired Program.  By mentoring students, helping the infirm, or working in their communities for 10 hours a week, members can earn up to $2,000 a year tax free that they can apply to an education grant for a family member or a member of their community.  Alternatively, seniors will be able to use these funds to defray their own health care costs.  John Kerry plans to engage 100,000 seniors a year in service in the next decade.
