Exactly and if you are familiar with with Rangel's Congressional district in upper Manhattan and a bit of the lower Bronx it has a population that will most likely get the crappiest assignments during a draft because the majority is neither wealthy nor white. Just note how he only brought this issue back up after his re-election. I doubt his at least 90% democrat district is pro-war or pro-draft.
