The Lobster, 1908, Oil on canvas, ... I would like to make something that is real in itself, Arthur Dove once wrote ... AND that does not have to be explained like the letter A, for instance...."

Artist Roberta Kelly, 2/22/2013, Passion is the energy that drives the human being .. yes - no?  Some call the energy of 'passion,' Chi, Ki, Qi, and verve.  Human beings passionately desire to seek expression which identifies our spontaneous bodies, minds, spirits - as we know to be all  mysteries, in 'reality.'  A realization sparks our imagination(s) while in an earth journey:  HOW TO BE ALL THAT WE CAN AND ARE, IMAGINE AS SENTIENT all powerful beings not doing anti-human hard time sub-human for,

Television cameras that had been installed in the Senate chamber to cover the expected impeachment trial of President Richard M. Nixon were used instead to broadcast the swearing-in of Nelson A. Rockefeller as vice president on December 19, 1974. A year earlier, Gerald Ford had chosen to take his oath as vice president in the House chamber, where he had served as Republican floor leader. Rockefeller might have opted for a White House ceremony but decided to take the oath in the chamber where he would preside as president of the Senate. With President Gerald Ford attending and Chief Justice Warren Burger administering the oath, Rockefeller became the nation's second appointed vice president. After the brief ceremony, the cameras were switched off. Not until 1986 would Senate proceedings be televised on a regular basis.

A Family of Wealth and Power

 

Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller came to the vice-presidency boasting a remarkable pedigree. His maternal grandfather, Rhode Island Senator Nelson Aldrich, had been the Senate's most powerful member at the turn of the century. Aldrich chaired the Senate Finance Committee and played the key role in passage of tariffs that influenced every industry and agricultural product. In 1901, Aldrich's daughter Abby married John D. Rockefeller, Jr., son of the nation's wealthiest man, the founder of Standard Oil. Although they combined political power and corporate wealth, the reputations of Nelson Aldrich and John D. Rockefeller, Sr. were less than stellar. In a series of articles for Cosmopolitan magazine during 1906, muckraking journalist David Graham Phillips portrayed Aldrich as a corrupt boss who contributed to the "Treason of the Senate." Similarly, writer Ida Tarbell exposed the senior Rockefeller as a ruthless robber baron, and President Theodore Roosevelt included him among the "malefactors of great wealth." At the time of Nelson Rockefeller's birth, on July 8, 1908, both of his grandfathers were afflicted by negative publicity. Senator Aldrich withdrew from politics in 1911, while John D. Rockefeller, Sr., 

hired one of the first public relations specialists to reshape his public image into that of a kindly old gentleman handing shiny dimes to children.
