    ah...so you attribute it to the US Treasury (an executive branch cabinet position under the influence of the president) and to the Fed, which while independent of the government is certainly influenced by the general economic ideas of the administration..

    So, um, then does or does not the president have influence on the economy. If so, why the concerns about an Obama presidency? And if Obama can influence it so strongly, why can't I blame Bush's fiscal policy for putting the economy in it's current position.

    Just trying to follow your logic here. Or is the presidency just all powerful when a democrat is in office and all fucking rainbows and unicorns when a republican is in? Or do you want it both ways - as has been rumored about you down at the Jaguar delaership?
