I feel the same exact way. I still don't see how serving time in the military or fighting in a war should be important factors or relevant when going for a job where one is ruling a country. Like you, I have a lot of respect for anyone who goes into the military and especially those who were unfortunate enough to be in war, but I still don't feel that that should determine one eligible to run the country.
