Meaningless as a qualification except for assholes like FlaJim, whose
career highlight was mopping out heads while he was in the Navy.
Why do you retards think military service is any sort of significant
qualification for POTUS?

It may not be a significant qualification for POTUS but it certainly
adds to anyone's experience in whatever goals or objectives they set out
to achieve in life.

One thing that is worth mentioning (I think) is the attitudes of many
young people today who have been brought up by and/or influenced by the
entitlement obsessed "Gen Y" population. Public school teachers I've
talked to see it everyday. Military service certainly dispels any
preoccupation with entitlements and what is thought is "owed" and
replaced with a concept of self-reliance and teamwork.

That sort of depends on how you define "entitlement," doesn't it?

And there are many employment situations that provide an individual with
a concept of self-reliance and teamwork.

I'm not saying military service is a waste of time...I'm just saying
that it is not any sort of significant qualification for being POTUS.

Since you brought it up I suppose you can enumerate the chosen one's
significant qualifications prior to and since becoming Prez.

"Hate" is pretty much a right-wing term these days. I don't "hate"
military service. I simply don't believe it is a significant requirement
for a POTUS. Oh, and the military teaches "team think," not to think for
themselves.

Not the army that I was in, far from it. You are trained to react

what is expected and do it well.. etc... that's where I was going.
