I think Mitt is about to serve - big time.
Dodging humble, difficult, military service and war, is not the same as seeking power, wealth, and desiring to become the most powerful, the most pampered man on earth, they are not the same thing.
At age 65, Mitt Romney is living a rich man’s dream of global power and recognition, he is not sacrificing and suffering like the humble, anonymous young patriots that he will send into harms way.
By your measure, Bill Clinton, “serve[d]-big time”, Obama “serve[d]-big time”.
Desire to serve in Vietnam: Different years, two different Romneys.
*”I was not planning on signing up for the military. It was not my desire to go off and serve in Vietnam...”

Boston Globe, 6/24/07
