The strong showing for Sanders, indicates the danger of a full-time professional military our founders knew too well.
The fulltime military class are trained, fed, housed, clothed, medicated, and ordered what to do from dawn until dusk. After 20 years service we have a guaranteed pension plan. We are indoctrinated to feel superior to civilian trogs and told to expect entitlement, respect and deferment from swearing in until spudded under. How can it get any more Sanderesque.
Not surprising the Navy is more commie than most...think mutiny of the High Seas fleet and the Kronstad sailors. Must be something in the salt air.
Now the air force....I just think they are gay.
:-)/humor.
Note however, the Army and Marines, the more masculine of the services tilt strongly to the right.
Coincidence?
i’ll have to look up those mutinies you mentioned.
But you sound right about the marines and army.
and you are in a much better position than me to know.
Even then, is a soldier willing to losing Everything by disobeying orders? will his family’s well being come before the country’s?
I don’t know
