(34,845 posts)A former Congressman from Nebraska? The President of Ploughshares Fund?
Some seem to have relevant experience, others do not. But the statement from the article that the rest of the board "...was filled with nuclear scientists, past Cabinet secretaries, and former members of Congress..." isn't really true, is it?
Unless you want to dispute the meaning of the words "was filled".
Clearly some non-relevant experience is allowed but probably grudgingly and trying to add Fernando to what was already there was likely considered going too far.
But it's an unpaid, advisory position so the implication that some kind of 'payback' was going on seems ludicrous. That combined with the false statement above makes me give little credence to the article.
