Post #235,791 by ben_tilly 11/23/05 10:25:51 PM Reply	Not quite ANY means.. But the latitude is wide enough that it has included pressgangs and military drafts in the past. So I'd assume that the federal government has quite a bit of latitude here.

Post #236,338 by ben_tilly 11/28/05 5:09:24 PM Reply	Yes, and I do not know [link\|http://www.mainstream.com/nhpolitics/getcase.gillette.html\|http://www.mainstrea...ase.gillette.html] is an example of a USSC case involving the draft. (The outcome is that one can't register as a conscientious objecter because you object to the current war.) I don't know of any cases offhand where a state tried to keep the federal government from enforcing a draft, but I cannot imagine that it would go well for the state. National defence is clearly a federal responsibility in the Constitution.
