Earlier this year, the Obama Administration began dumping high-ranking military officials at exceedingly high rates. Up to 25 percent of the country’s generals and admirals may be on the outs, and now we may know how they will be replaced.
While some justified the layoffs by claiming that new leadership needed the opportunity to rise through the ranks, now Defense Secretary Ash Carter is attempting to open these high-level positions to those who aren’t even serving in the military.
The move has many scratching their heads, while others are outraged at the proposition. At the most basic level, this allows unqualified individuals to take control of the United States military. Perhaps more worryingly, this also would also allow the Obama administration to insert whoever they’d like into the roles once reserved for qualified, experienced servicemen.
Why Obama would crave this newfound power is anyone’s guess.

this s o b has ruined our coutry,and how can anyone support something like this is beyond me
NO !!!
Looks like he’s trying to reshape the Military to support his agenda but I don’t think it will work
‘Fundamental Changes’ is what this POtuS promised, and it’s what we are getting. He needs to be removed, imprisoned for the Traitorous ways that he has practiced against the Oath of Office that he promised to uphold.
It can be done !!!
Impeach. Remove. Imprison.
That is the stupidest damn thing I have ever heard of.
so what are the republicans who control congress gonna do about it
NO, NO, NO, NO!
Grave mistake!
