And there's an even greater gulf between Democratic partisans and the general public on affirmative action. Your point?
As well as a greater rift between hard-left progressives -- like the kind who support slavery mandatory national service -- and the public.
Umm, it's the right wing who usually support conscription 
Here are a few other countries with conscription:
Bolivia
Moldova
China
Russia
Venezuela
Pretty much all of N. Africa
Brazil
Vietnam
There are some right-wing countries that use conscription, but they are in the minority.
Who includes Lincoln or Wilson on the "left wing"? Or most of Northern Africa, Brazil, or Russia for that matter.
Ok, ignore the others for a moment, please explain how Wilson was right-wing? And please do not just say because he was racist.
He might not be "right wing" but he's certainly not "left wing".
