I was thinking the other day about recent US Presidents who were veterans. Harry Truman was a WW-I vet, but Eisenhower, JFK, Nixon (USN), LBJ (USN) and Bush 41 were all WW-II veterans. Jimmy Carter served in the Navy and Bush 43 was in the National Guard and was a fighter pilot. Only Clinton and Obama have had no military experience whatsoever.

It is no coincidence that Clinton and Obama have shown the greatest contempt of those who serve of any U.S. Presidents.

Good post, but you left out Ronald Reagan.

Had Romney won he would have had no military experience either. It's very likely that we've seen our last veteran president from either party, certainly for the foreseeable future. I can't think of any of the current crop of GOP potential candidate who served. And certainly none of the Dems.
