I removed the comment that Rockefeller was the leader of liberal Republicans. This article is about the national Republican party. Rockefeller never was elected to any federal office, never served in the US Congress where such a title might be conferred. Rockefeller had a contingent of followers as he served in FDR's administration, but most all held appointed positions. As a leader of "liberal Republicans", a few New York congressman may have identified as such at a time when New York was the most populous state, as a few others in neighboring states. But referring to him as "the leader of liberal Republicans" doesn't hold up outside the New York GOP or New York politics. You could call him "icon of liberal Republicans", or his influence in party conventions controlling the largest delegation, but he never lead a  contingent of any legislators in the US Congress.[[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''CIA v Trump updated score'':CIA 3, Trump 2]]</sup> 21:05, 13 April 2017 (EDT)

:Calling Rocky the leader of liberal Republicans only applies at convrntions every four years. He never had any direct influence over federal legislation. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''CIA v Trump updated score'':CIA 3, Trump 2]]</sup> 22:21, 13 April 2017 (EDT)
