Barack Obama’s chief of staff Rahm Emanuel discusses his book The Plan in which he outlines a mandatory civil service requirement for all Americans from ages 18 to 25.
“You look at WWII that was a draft. This is not a draft it is universal service.” says Emanuel about his mandatory 3 month civil service training program.
Barack Obama spoke about the national security force he would like to see created while campaigning in the 2008 presidential election season.
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” - Barack Obama July 2, 2008 @ Colorado Springs.
