Are you going to fill me in on why you posted this to me?

I apologize if I misread your intention when I answered your post. I was responding to the idea that only a person who has seen combat can be an effective president or prime minister or leader. I don't think that's necessarily true. I have a great deal of respect for people who have served in uniform, but I don't think it is a prerequisite for the presidency. I do think that the president should show great respect for the men and women who serve. That to me is a prerequisite.

Again, I apologize if I misread your post to suggest that you will only endorse a candidate if they have served in combat.
