   We need more Black people....especially AfroAmericans....in leadership positions in the military.
   
   If this is OUR country....and it is @richardmurray.....then we need to be in leadership positions in all relevant branches of it.
   
   Unlike many Black nationalists and Pan-Africanists, I ENCOURAGE Black people to not only join law enforcement but the military also.
   Every branch.
   Rise as high as you can rise.
   The more power and rank we have in it, the more influence we have.

   I will start with the honey and then the pot....
    
   The Honey
   Well done, well done, I like when black people anywhere in humanity, think of new things, that is a form of nationalism. NAtionalism means a system of creation, making new. Pan -Africanism, which is about geography, not phenotype, which means it includes non black africans in that all encompassing view, for example mandela embraccing quadaffi as a fellow african liberator. quadaffi is not black, he is mulatto. but quadaffi is african. So,
   I haven't read anyoone else suggest that in this forum, and neither did I. I think becoming the majority leadership in the usa military all branches is a decent goal for Black DOSers in the USA. Why? Black DOSers in the usa have a financial problem, they will never have the fiscal background to compete with non blacks, especially whites, in the usa. Enslavement matters, financially, inheritance is not the primary way of gaining fiscal wealth for nothing. Our forebears who were enslaved and then handed freedom by whites, didn't have any fiscal inheritance to give nor had any uneven financial opportunities, as MLK jr said, so... this means, Black DOSers are simply financially slower than all others,because all others, even Black Immigrants have an external financial source, in the country they came from which is a huge advantage. you see this with any number, puerto ricans/jamaicans/nigerians/japanese/brasilians/// it doesn't matter, having a country outside the usa allows all other groups in the usa except the first peoples/native american to have a way to financially support themselves or manipulate their wealth safely frm the usa. the irish did with with ireland, the italians did it so famously with italy, it is a movie trope. Black DOSers don't have an external country. Most white americans are german americans, germany is a rich country which has a lot of financial possibilities to help them. Russia for russian americans. china for chinese americans... So, the government becomes very important for Black DOSers as a tool, history proves this. If it wasn't for the federal government, black people would be in the same fiscal situation we were in before the 1960s which was mostly enslaved to whites, through sharecropping with terrible contracts or imprisonment on multiple charges of light crimes. So...  I even argue where are the Black members of the Party of Abraham Lincoln? This should be there platform? But, good idea. 
    
   The Pot
   first,while an idea with a goal not done is a new thing, a nationalism, the us military is not something black nationalist can say is born from blacks, and is clearly not pan african. So you need to separate the goal from those two philosophies. I consider your idea integratory. It isn't nationalistic or pan african but that of an integrationist, which makes sense cause the usa has always been integrationist. Why? the usa has always been about some abusing others, to abuse another they have to be integrated to you.  BUT to help another also requires integration.  
   The good news is that outside your rhetoric around this issue, which needs polishing, the idea itself is a sound goal. The question is getting to that goal. Just on a leisure glance, one step to that process can be converting a historical black college into a military school. I can't recall any historical black college that is a military school. Why do you need military schools. Military schools serve an important function in making officers. Enlisted men take too long. HAving someone start off at the bottom of the officer core is essential in making their path higher easier.  So, more will be needed, nothing is impossible, go for it. My strategic contributions are
   1) get the Black Elephants/Party of Abraham Lincolm behind this. I think it fits them better than the Black Donkeys/PArty of Andrew Jackson. 
   2) convert a historical black college into a military school for officers , that is mandatory to grow an officer class that can achieve filling the top ranks of all branches of the usa military. You can not achieve your goal absent military schools, enlisted men no matter how many can not manifest the goal. The officers corp of most militaries will always be a club, it isn't a place you can run by earning your way in, you need to be a member from day one. 
   In aMendment
   this will take time for your tribe in the village , but I Think your idea has legs. It will take time, but it is doable, and most importantly, has high functionality with the reality of black dosers. And... being even minded, even if the movement fails, it will create a stronger tribe of black people who fit your viewpoints : not entertainers, all have taken a public oath to the usa, though the military school enforces booker t washington's functional skills focus not scholarly focus of others, which is more hands on. 
   DO IT!
