February 24, 2015: "Wow — I have some big news. Moments ago, President Obama
issued a presidential veto against Congress’ bill to force construction of the Keystone XL pipeline.
In vetoing KXL, President Obama is showing that he’s listened to the people, not the polluters.
This is an incredible moment for all who participated — this is your moment.
I hope you celebrate this news with me today."

Under the high plains of the midwest, there is a resource called the Ogallala Aquifer, which is a subsystem of a huge underground mega-system called the High Plains Aquifer.
