Not a surprise. Nobody wants to openly contradict the president

To be clear: I wasn’t making a political point. Just trying to offer an explanation as to why the numbers differ from those that we’re getting from other sources. The AHA has a history of making contributions to both parties. If my hunch is correct, they were using this deck as a way of stimulating their members to make financial contributions that would then be used to lobby on behalf of their members’ interest. It’s an educated guess, not a political stance.
