Mayo Pete wants YOU to serve (for a pittance). Military, Peace Corps, Americorps, etc. Never did understand how a Peace Corp volunteer straight out of a liberal arts school would know enough of any skill to teach third world peoples how to improve their lives when they've had millenia to hone their skills and knowledge. Except maybe hand out freebies and English lessons. He's wanting kids straight out of high school to tackle the challenges of the world! Yeah, right. More cannon fodder, sexual assault victims, and infectious disease reservoirs coming back to our communities (if they're lucky).

"Pete's Vision

 

Our intention is for this proposal to create a pathway towards a universal, national expectation of service for all 4 million high school graduates every year. While strictly optional, we hope service becomes so common that the first question asked of every college freshman or new hire is: “where did you serve?” A new generation of American youth, bound by mutual service and sacrifice, aware of the common values that bind all Americans, influenced by the experience of doing real work with people across races, politics, faiths, income levels, and gender identities, and imbued with an appreciation of the effort required to maintain a democracy can help heal a divided nation."

Not a Democrat, but I'm thinking we should pay more attention to DemRat candidates' sites (and their supporters) to find and publicize their crazy ideas which even Fox has decided to ignore. Good source of meme fodder.
