An open letter to President-elect Barak Obama regarding the nomination of U.S. Senator Ken Salazar as Secretary of Interior, and an open invitation to ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News, etc., to investigate and report on Senator Ken Salazar's corruption in Colorado.

Dear President-elect Barak Obama,

I openly object to your choice for Secretary of Interior. Before Senator Ken Salazar lied his way to becoming Colorado's U.S. Senator, he was Colorado's Attorney General. As Attorney General, Ken Salazar was instrumental in carrying out the theft of $15 million dollars in water rights for his wealthy friends:

Nelson and Catherine Lane , Owns the Bell Ranch in New Mexico, Eldon Farms in Rappahannock County, Virginia, Blue Creek Ranch in Carbondale, Colorado, Shadow Creek Ranch in Summit County, Colorado, The Park at San Tan Development in Chandler, Arizona, Lane Agrico, Inc., Lane Industries-a holding company for General Binding Corporation which manufactures and markets branded office products, office equipment and related supplies, thermal laminating films, and owns Acco Brand office products, and Lane Hospitality which owns 9 hotels, and invests in, and manages 13 others.

Kevin Smith, Developer, states he served as President of Southern Partners Capitol Corporation.

Donald F. Moorehead, Jr., owns General Waste Corporation, a non-hazardous solid waste company.

Paul Tudor Jones of Tudor Investments, named #123 on Forbes 400 at $3.3 billion.

Roger Wikner, owns Aviation Charter, Beech Transportation, and Executive Aviation in Eden Prarie, Minnesota.

In addition to the $15 million water rights theft, a bankruptcy unveils $80 million in fraudulent loans, land development, and sales tied to the stolen water rights.

As Attorney General, Ken Salazar was charged with representing and defending the legal interests of the people of Colorado. If Mr. Salazar allowed that he and his State office of public trust be prostituted for the benefit of wealthy buddies, how can we the people trust that he will not do the same in this National office of public trust - Secretary of Interior? If he can't be trusted with small matters, how can we trust him with greater ones?

President-elect Obama, please do not defile our House and your Presidency by appointing Senator Ken Salazar as Secretary of Interior.

Respectfully, Halena Lewis

For all interested in further information, dates, evidence, etc., I can be reached at 303 887-0284, or Halen@axint.net
