Why Notre Dame Caved

University presidents try to provide the best education they can for their students. However, I am in a quandary about what experience   Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., president of the University of Notre Dame, is tryng to provide by asking  President of the United States, Barack Obama to speak at this year’s commencement. 

 President Obama is clearly pro-abortion, an idea contrary to Catholic teaching. Perhaps President Jenkin’s is trying to offer his students an opportunity to hear someone who is clearly in favor of abortion argue in favor of murdering new life. Or, perhaps he wants his student body to hear an agent who is anti-religion. Perhaps he is trying to give his students the radical liberal perspective of Barack Obama, after having indoctrinated  them in the principles of conservatism. What ever the reason, it is not rational. I believe Father Jenkins should be fired for inviting Obama to speak. I believe the alumni should hold back donations to hurt the school in the pocket book. However, I believe Obama should speak. He was asked, and he committed to the engagement.

On the other hand, perhaps the reverend Father Jenkins knows something the rest of us do not, such as Obama is…(cartoon.)The Second Coming at Notre Dame
