a humorous
pronunciation of
Rockefeller, in
reference to
Nelson Aldrich
Rockefeller (1908@1979). He was the grandson of
John D.
Rockefeller (1839@1937),
American industrialist and
founder of the
Standard Oil Company. As such,
Nelson was heir to a fortune of
legendary proportions. His activity in
New York state politics led to his
election as
governor in 1958 and to re-
election in 1962, 1966 and 1970. He failed, however, in his attempts to
win the
Republican Party's presidential nomination in 1960, 1964 and later in 1968. You

Rock-e-
feller who didn't go rocketing to
president, ahTyou
don't
form up
concentration camps for young people who might go
wrong.
