So I read a article that deals with my subject lightly but interest me as I read through it. The article is found on the New York Times called: For Veterans, These Politics are Personal By: Conrad Mulcahy. A link can be found at the bottom of this post. But Mr. Mulcahy speaks about how veterans are eager to hear what other parties have to offer. "But while 20 years ago most veterans could be counted on to vote Republican, this year is very different."(Mulcahy) Veterans today are beginning to look around at their options for president are. They want to know how is going to support them in this next presidential election. They were not too happy with the last president ,being from the republican party, on how he dealt with VA health care. Some went as far as going to the Democractic Convention to show to Obama that they really are people to be accounted for. So it will be very interesting to me which side veterans take. I do believe the issue of health care for veterans will be a huge turning point for the veterans. Who ever proposes the best takes all, at least thats what I believe. Americas Veterans are a huge group after all...

Are you for or against healthcare for veterans? Seeing as how you are in the ROTC program, I'm pretty sure you're for it, but I am not positive. I think it's only fair to the veterans that they be covered with a healthcare plan. This presidential election should be very interesting, not just for veterans, but everyone because no matter what, there will be some drastic changes. You better be voting!!!!
I am for veterans health care. And believe all veterans should receive it.
