I think you are, which is good, because no such provison exits.
There is one however, for a standing Navy.
The "Army" mentioned in Article II Section 2, is in nthe event one need be raised.

Any sixth grader knows this

Didnt they teach you that during theb 30 days you were in boot camp, before they sent you home ?
Sorry chump. But since both were created prior to the Constitution, just the mention of them is sufficient to indicate such a provision. Otherwise why assign a non-existent job to the president.

I realize you didn't attend school long enough to attend any logic classes (or apparently any others either), so your stupidity is excused, this time.

Now why don't you limit your posts to something you are knowledgeable in, like recess 101.
