what if there are not enough "patriots"??

If there aren't enough "patriots"--people willing to sacrifice for the sake of being free--then that is a nation that doesn't deserve liberty. I just don't see how we can call ourselves free if we force young men to kill and die--especially when the cause is political and has virtually nothing to do with the actual defense of the United States (e.g., Korea and Vietnam).
