| Would this be a good time for those of you in the Cleveland area to show up in support of the Christian Vice President?Perhaps Lee University feels it is ok to continue on their current path. What will those in Cleveland do to show them the error of their ways?Wasn't there a group that sang We're not Gonna Take It back in the 80s?Where is the fire, the flame, in you locals to do something positive about it |

| Is he visiting on invitation? I assume he is. If so who invited him?This truly amazes me if in fact someone doesn't want the VP at Lee. I would have thought it was a feather in their hat?What I am reading here is a Baptist university is more conservative than a pennycostal (OTCP) school.I hope you guys are exaggerating...... I would expect him to get a BIG HUG and standing ovations. I still hope so! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| It could be a watershed moment for Lee administration.How many times has a sitting VP or President spoke at a Lee campus auditorium? Has it ever happened?So if it is happening for the first time Saturday - I surely hope the Lee administration rolls out the red carpet for him. It seems like a no-brainer - and I know the Lee folks know how to treat folks the right way. They are excellent at it. I expect it to be a good thing |

| The anger of Lee People over the Vice President's visit is VERY disturbing to me. He is a Christian man and Lee is supposed to be a Christian University |

| We are not exaggerating. You should see the venom on facebook from Lee University alumni |

| I have been seeing the uproar - but so far it's just one student's petition - and not any faculty or administrators protesting. Again - it is fine to disagree on certain policies - no one is 100% correct - but if we succumbed to not allowing the VP to speak on our campus - I suspect there are a lot of parents that will no longer send their kids there.I hope our guys are smart enough to roll out the welcome mat to a sitting VP - duly elected through our American electoral process. And a Christian man - notwithstanding the student who claims he doesn't represent our Christian values. We know he represents one of them - the Right to Life. If for nothing else - a Christian university should CELEBRATE him for that.The only thing worse than protests - would be to get him to cancel or change venues - now that would be sad |

| It’s unfair to say that Lee is protesting. Lee is the ones allowing them to use their venue. I don’t know of one faculty member protesting this. If you do, name them and I’ll go take a look. There are some alumni and other outsiders making a big deal about it on social media. There have been thousands of people come through Lee. It is to be expected that a few knuckleheads show their rear. Lee is not sponsoring this event. They are only allowing a local politician use a conference hall. Others have done so when the right went crazy. Al Gore spoke there as well as the World Council of Churches. People from both sides of the aisle. To those who say that the school is promoting a politician, why would they have this event while students are not there? |
