...conscription program we support would reestablish a lottery for all men and women aged 20 through 24, if drafted, men and women would serve in one of the four arms of our nation's military for two years. No exemptions would be granted for any reason other than unfitness to serve and conscientious objector status. And the system of deferments for college students would be wiped out. We realize that in endorsing such a proposal, we join with the reactionaries of every stripe in this nation; we hope, though, to set forth a fresh and progressive justification for the draft...
