Rand Paul bill to end Selective Service named for Muhammad Ali

Posted by | June 7, 2016 20:00 | Filed under: Politics


Senator Rand Paul wants to end the Selective Service with his Muhammad Ali Voluntary Service Act.

ll men are required to register for the Selective Service (there’s been talk of including women too) at 18, should the United States need to bring back the draft for any reason.

Paul wants to eliminate the Selective Service entirely, and he is naming the legislation after Muhammad Ali.

The heavyweight champion previously known as Cassius Clayfamously refused to serve in Vietnam, saying that war is against his personal beliefs and he “ain’t got no quarrel with the Viet Cong.”

      I believe the drug he is on is called pandering, all the republicans are doing now-a-days.

    The legacy of a great man is being impugned by a much lesser man.
    Quotes and actions of Muhammed Ali will live on forever whilst any memory of Ayn Rand Paul will be lost to time.

    Ali forced America to look at it’s own hypocrisy.
