.....15% is what Obama’s support ought to be across the board. And that should be a high water mark.

“Who the heck are the 15% that still support him? “

How was it ever at 35%!?!?!?

Nothing odder than a military liberal (Modern definition, YMMV)

Per centage of all American service members who are black: 17.8.

The 15% is:
- Homos
- People who vote and live by skin color alone
- Idiots, but I repeat myself.

NO, they are probably waiting for a promotion, and can’t speak yet.

Military sadly mirrors broader population demographics.
My kid was real surprised to learn about half of his USCG Academy class was left of center during the course of gov’t, history and economics classes in the late 2000 period.
He observed women cadets were more inclined to be liberal.
I’ve even attended gun range training with a youngish marine who was as left as could be.

Sincerely grateful for FR and critical thinkers here -
Its an uphill battle for the republic out there...

Well, for one, it was the American people who elected him, and it is THEY that the military serves. Obama is the Commander-in-Chief, by the will of the American people.

But you can be sure they will NOT follow an illegal order—say one that goes against 225 years of Constitutional governance.

So you can rest assured an order to say, postpone or permanently suspend the election and disobey the 22nd amendment would see 100% of the military arrest him, if need be, and about 85% of them be happy to do so.

In my 22 years in uniform I met a few, but they are still rare... After 9/11 that rarity went much further to obscurity.

Anyone who makes a career of the military usually wind up conservative or libertarian. Very, very few professed democrats among the career force.

That is truly encouraging!

Who the heck are the 15% that still support him?
Do the math. A protected minority with privileges.

I find it hard to believe Obama has that much support.

The 85% will still follow Obama’s orders.

I seriously doubt that.
The concept of "unlawful order" is still very much alive and well...

Most normal people still remember Nuremberg...

When it occurs, the appropriate site for the Black American Nuremberg should be Ferguson, MO., with Chicago a close second.

“Buffalo Soldiers”?

Mostly, I would say probably yes.
