Why not?  Drafting Presidents seems like it couldn't be much worse than the last couple of elections.
Hmm, i like the idea of drafting folk at random to serve in congress and as potus.  Limit it to taxpaying citizens of course.

I'll happily abide by whoever they pick,  provided they have no prior public office experience or connection with the Clinton foundation.

DeSelby is probably more conservative than Romney and come to think of it he may be more conservative than GWB. 

He wouldn't try and take our guns, he wouldn't get us involved in unnecessary military adventures or destabilizing foreign governments.

While he has obviously made peace with the reality of big government promoting it himself he doesn't seem to be in favor of the fascist merging of big government with big business for elite profit, seems more populist than elitist.

So there you go, DeSelby 2016!

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I've always been in fan of Voltaire's pour encourager les autres – "In this country, it is wise to kill an admiral (and general) from time to time to encourage the others."

I'd like to see both sides of the walkways leading up to the US Capitol lined with Heads (of former members) on Pikes.  Like the ending of Spartacus.

And as SecDef, I could make that happen....

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Sorry, I called dibs.  Although if you want SecArmy, I'm good with that.  You will have free rein to implement you ideas and policies.  Also, I will be folding the Air Farce back into the Army.  The damn zoomies seem to have forgotten what their mission is.   And I'll make the Navy part of the Marines.  As they seem to have forgotten what their mission is...

A War Department and a Marine Department.  Sounds about right.
