Muhammad Ali was no ‘draft dodger’
#10
RE: Muhammad Ali was no ‘draft dodger’
Muhammad Ali was conscientious objector as were many other men who were granted that status, which he was not granted.  Ali ended up standing his ground based on his beliefs, which is one thing I respect him for.  It was pitiful the way people used wealth and power to get out of going to war while others were over there giving their lives because they didn't have the resources or connections to avoid it.  It became fairer when they established the lottery, but people with money, power and influence and poor morality will always find ways to get over.
