Actually just one (looney) Democrat. Charlie Rangel (who is very much a disgrace to the Democratic party, in my opinion, and a disgrace to voters from New York that keep sending him back to Congress).
Just to spread the word and place the blame for this plenty early (so that Democrats can't point at the Republican party and try to place blame for bringing back the draft), here's the news, taken from print edition of The Washington Post, which credits -- From News Services:
Rangel Reintroduces Bill To Bring Back Military Draft
Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.) announced that he has reintroduced legislation to reinstate the military draft.
He said his decision was prompted in part by a crisis in military recruiting. Enlistments have declined by 30 percent in recent months.
Rangel, and his friends, want to turn military recruiting into a political hot potato. Rangel and friends have tried in the past (mostly unsuccessfully) to say that deaths in the military are disproportionately affecting minorities, and have also tried (again, mostly unsuccessfully) to say that military recruits are too often made up of minorities.
In order to rectify that problem, Rangel wants to give the government the right to indenture citizens of all races, creeds, and upbringings so that rich white folks will get to see their children called to war just as redneck children, poor black children, hispanics and others (in the eyes of Rangel) do.
Too bad Rangel's Democratic friends like Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer and others have no intention of letting themselves be the party that brought back the draft. (And for that matter, the entire GOP has basically thumbed their nose at the idea of bringing back the draft, as there is no need to do so, and conscripted soldiers typically are not as willing to fight as are people that volunteer for service).
