I'm wondering if any here remembers what Clinton did to dodge the draft.  I 
heard someone say he went to Canada to escape the draft, can't imagine if he 
did that it would have been headline news everyday of every campaign???  I 
know there were college deferrals, that would have been available to anyone 
who had the funds to attend college.  He and I are about the same age so by 
the time he graduated the number system came into play.  Did he have a high 
number and had to take other measures?
