He often said much the same thing when he was NSA and Secretary of State.

Only their claim is a lot more recent.

Look at the career passer rating list again - how many active players are in the top twenty-five? 14. How many hall of famers? Just 3.

Maybe you could think about what those reasons might be and get back to us.

And if there were, did you listen to them or think they were hopelessly out of date?

Some of the services have been shamelessly using the Guard and Reserves to fill out easily predictable gaps in their force structures since the 90s. At one point I had been activated four times in less than eight years - every time for not less than 270 days. Hard to maintain any sort of normal career when they call you up for every minor deployment.

Congress would have never voted for war pre-Pearl Harbor and FDR was almost powerless to act without them. The pitiful 1939 US Army would not have been much of an immediate challenge to Germany anyway.

Off the top of my head: Panama, Gulf War, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, and ten years of the Iraq No-Fly Zone? Is this what you call an "isolationist period"?

If you want to get involved in politics beyond voting leave the military and run for Congress. I guess I'm old-fashioned.

Good luck selling that one to 1939 America, Mr. President.

The French were also on the offensive and in enemy territory - all in all , hardly an equal chance to win. Lee lost twice to mediocre generals at Antietem and Gettysburg under similar circumstances. I might also point out that a major reason why the Confederacy "no longer had a viable chance to win" by the time Grant came East was because of what Grant had already done in the West.
