Despite the fact that many democrats would like nothing more than to have Bill back, Senator Clinton is attempting to bring Republicans on board and won't likely put Bill in the spotlight. An interesting case study, indeed! Prof Hannagan Debbie,

I wonder what type of protests the inclusion of women in the draft would generate. It seems to me that even though we have women in the military, the number of women being killed versus men is very small. The draft may or may not change that. So many of the protest songs relate to our sons going off to war. I agree. I wonder what type of protests the inclusion of women in the draft would generate.

I think whether people are completely aware of the message of a song or not is not really the point. Music is a way of expressing values - political or otherwise - and has been especially important for those who do not have a "voice" in mainstream political debate. Young people typically do not . . . and I think that we have not learned lessons from the past. If young people were not only recruited, but drafted, I think the protests and protest music would follow. Professor Hannagan Debbie,
