Speech by Senator John McCain at the Hudson Institute

27 September 2007 speech by Senator John McCain at the Hudson Institute.  Note:  McCain noted that the Iranian president was welcomed at Columbia but ROTC was not, and said "Harvard and other great American universities remain closed to ROTC, whose graduates represent the bulk of the officers commissioned into our Armed Forces each year.  Some academic elites may not like ROTC, and they are free to voice their objections.  But they are wrong, and I stand with the many graduates of these institutions who for years have been trying in vain to bring ROTC back to their campuses."
