Rangel's mission is not to reinstate the draft (he knows full well that isn't going to happen), it's to attempt make the far-left nutballs in his party's leadership positions look reasonable by comparison.

Actually, Rangel's plan is to engender a wider base of opposition to the war against terrorism by making more people susceptible to serving. He believes that if more people are at risk of being forced into serving, then there will be a real outcry against the war as opposed to the support for this war demonstrated by an all volunteer military.
