Kamala Harris, finding her “safe space” for a live interview on the blog, Call Her Daddy, was tossed a softball to hit out of the park, they thought. The host said, “one of the biggest conversations in this year’s election revolves around a woman’s body. Can we try to think of any law that gives the government the power to make a decision”….at this point Harris, bursting with glee said, “I know what you’re going to ask.” The host continued, "a man’s body.” Harris said no repeatedly. The host asked again, “is there any law?” Harris kept laughingly saying no.
There have been multiple Selective Service Acts adopted by the US Congress, 1917 and 1940 and amendments thereafter that gives this government the power to make decisions over American men’s bodies and lives. The draft has never been for women.
This person who wants you to vote for her to be called the commander-in-chief of the American military services with complete control over millions of American men and women’s bodies appears clueless about the draft law and its history.
Perhaps Harris should spend her time reassuring Americans FEMA has sufficient funds to address the destruction caused by hurricanes including the major storm heading toward Florida instead of giggling on a blog displaying ignorance of such a significant thing to men as the Selective Service Act. So call her what?

Really, Mr. Miller? There hasn't been a draft in over 50 years.
Isn't your comparison akin to wearing an ermine coat versus picking a book at Barnes and Noble?
