50. but the Newish President was very anti-fracking

May 2016

Rhea Suh was at the dept of Interior prior to just becoming newish head o this organization.

Before that she worked at or with Hewlitt and Packard foundations. Promoting anti-fracking. So how can she endorse Hillary over Bernie? Very strange.

Good to see that some people are thinking. MariaThinks May 2016 #1
