...Commands US wide.? Would give both the opportunity to present there policys and
positions. Would really like to see them have one debate
at Hq SOCOM McDill AFB Florida.

1. Ft Campbell KY.
2. Ft, Bragg
3. Special Operations Command Mc Dill AFB
4. Camp Pendelton.
5. Andrews AFB Maryland.
 
The real issue rapped in this statement would be that the Military in this country has trouble identifying whether it swore allegiance to defend the constitution first before they swore to follow the commander and chief. Reread the oath you took. As a Veteran, I did. That being said, each member of the military is first a citizen of this country and has no more rights than the rest of us. No more incite than the rest of us. From a Military point of view they have an allegiance to you and me as citizens and not to one idiology...not one party. From a Citizens point of view they have the same rights as you and I... to come to a debate or rally and stand along side you and I to seek out the candidate they support. Offering them some kind of platform above the general populous is tantamount to that enjoyed in the former Soviet Union or China or any other Military controlled society. I hope that isn't what you are hoping to espouse. If it is, then take a look at the mess in Burma.
 
Military is not the only policy of a democratic country.
Defence is to defend the country.
