Would George be so fast to do it if both his daughters were REQUIRED BY LAW to go fight on the front lines of any war he started? Or any president for that matter. If you're willing to send others to die you have to be willing for yourself or your family members to perish in that fight.
Hell yeah. Except I'd amend that to "required to actually fight, bear arms, be present in the front lines, risk their lives".

What ever happened to the days of a country's leaders sticking themselves up front as they charge the enemy? Worked well for Alexander. : )
