Will we ever see the POTUS wear one? After all, we are at war and he is commander in chief.

What would it look like if he did?

Personally, I think it would bother me.

I don't know, maybe a cross between Ike and Donald Duck?

All I know is that if Klinton had worn a military uniform there would have been some serious action in D.C.

IMHO it would be a giant leap away from the clear recognition that the military is subserviant to civil authority.  We would drop to the same level as Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Arafat, Hussein, Kadafi, Amien, Sung,....

Klinton should have declared himself "President for Life" and got himself a spiffy uniform like Khadaffi, Qhadafy, Quadaphy, or however they spell it.

Or, maybe his uniform should have been prison-gray with a big D.O.C. lettered on the back of this shirt.

I think Klinton would have sported something like a purple wide brim hat with a feather of some type and a matching dress coat and big shiny watch chain....white 2 inch thick belt and matching shoes....

The moment a president or prime minister or whatever title they gave the man/woman for the job starts wearing a military uniform you will start to refer to him/her as El Presidente, Mein Fuhrer or any chicom/russion equivalent of it. i.e. You don't want that to happen
