McCain, Biden, and Palin have absolutely no control over where their kids go. The military may decide that their kids could be strategic targets and move them to a different group to avoid increased danger for their fellow soldiers (see Prince Harry), but you can be sure that they don't have any control over where they are deployed.
As far as cushy jobs or the one giving orders, I wouldn't wish the job of president on my worst enemy. The weight of the world is on your shoulders and all you have to do is look at pictures of presidents entering office and the pictures of them leaving when their term is complete to see what it does to you from a mental and physical standpoint. It's a heavy burden to bear for one individual.
