The military claims to be apolitical; but many of the troops are expressing their political opinions about this November’s presidential election. During the 2004 presidential election about 73% of American servicemen and servicewomen voted. This time those numbers are expected to increase; with the top concerns being the war in Iraq and the economy.
Many of the soldiers interviewed in the ABC video below want either Senator Barack Obama or Senator Hillary Clinton to be the next president. If American civilians follow the lead of their troops, then a Democratic president should be on the horizon.
What do you think?
