You may or may not have noticed, but we have lost every conflict since
WWII due to our allowing politicians to try to micro manage our
military. The politicians need to be prohibited from exercising any
control over the military beyond setting the initial goal, after that it
should be 100% under military control how to accomplish the specified
goal.


Why mess around? Just hand the country over to the military. You like
them so much just let them run things. We can get rid of the
constitution and all the legal crap and just let the generals run
things. Look at history, they have a great record whenever they run a
country. Don't they?
