Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1. Describe how the intelligence community seeks to learn about external threats to the United States.
2. List two of the major players, such as the Central Intelligence Agency, the director of National Intelligence, the National Security Agency, the Department of Homeland Security, or the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
3. Explain that these various agencies do not always work well together or share intelligence with each other.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Indicate that the draft was first used during the Civil War and was enacted based on Congress's authority under the Constitution to do whatever is necessary to raise and support armed forces.
2. Explain that the draft was helpful during past wars in procuring a large number of personnel, which were needed in wars traditionally fought by massive armies in face-to-face combat.
3. Note how the changes in the nature of war make it likely that future wars will involve more precise engagements and the use of sophisticated technologies such as unmanned drones and computer viruses.
4. Identify the Department of Defense's argument that there will be less need for infantry soldiers and more need for stealth bomber and fighter pilots, technology experts, and naval ships that act as offshore bases.
