    The ignorance about the draft really is remarkable.

    If you live in GA and have renewed your drivers license since your 18th B-day, guess what, you are fully registered with the selective service. The same is true in about 20 other states.

    The President has no control over the draft. First there must be a formal declaration of war passed through both houses of congress. Second, a bill must be passed through both houses to institute the draft. Third, the President must sign off on both bills.

    So unless we end up in a real war, dont worry about the draft.

    You sure cause I'm gonna be honest I haven't registered for it. I haven't done it cause I don't want to it's just that I keep forgetting to do it. But I haven't got a draft card in the mail or anything so IDK how accurate that info is.
