Draft Dodger Rag was written by Phil Ochs in 1965

The song makes me feel upbeat and happy. I think the mood and what the musician is trying to express is that no one should be drafted to go to The Vietnam War. All of the problems he says he has with his body contributes to the mood.

The audience includes all other men who could be drafted to go to the war, because this song is about a man making excuses about why he shouldn't go to the war.

Draft Dodger Rag was released during the Vietnam War and that is what it protests.

The purpose of the song is to stop drafting people for The Vietnam War.

The song presents drafting as an issue during the war, but does not present any solutions.

This song is really biased because it only states the writer's point of view

The part of the song that is fact is the part about men being drafted for the war. The conjecture part is all of the problems with his body that he says he has.

The information in the song is not reliable be cause it is just for fun and really isn't very much fact.

From this song I can conclude that Phil Ochs really hates people being drafted for war.

The song is really effective because it says what people would do and say to keep from going to war.

The drafting during the Vietnam War had such a huge effect that the U.S. hasn't had another draft since the Vietnam War.

Additional information might differ from the content of the song because it is in a different perspective.
