Who Will Be Fed Chairman At The End Of 2014?
It seems most have strong views on who should not be the Chairman of the Fed but based on a recent survey at a Morgan Stanley conference, it seems Ron Paul still has an outside chance. What of Justin Bieber? Jim Grant? Maria Bartiromo? Chuck Norris?

Clint Eastwood's Chair
I think we should make an aborted, twisted offspring of the Anti-Christ Fed Chairman ...
What's that? One of them already has the job? Guess I need to read the papers more often.
George W. Bush ... or .. Tom Cruise?
Mary Poppins.
jon corzine
Krugman, or Larry Summers. Satan doesn't want the job directly, to much bad PR.
In a perverse way I sorta want it to be Krugman. Every interview or hearings just him screaming "MOAR PRINTING!!!" and I'd like to believe him in power would be enough to invalidate his views in the mainstream, but then I suppose the only thing closer to infinity than the Fed's future balance sheet is the stupidity of the average person.
(quiet sobs)
That is actually quite funny. I was thinking about the average Village Idiot, but this would be .. beautiful!
KRUGMAN 2014!
Made me think of Spongebob screaming "MORE POWER" as he blows up Bikini Bottom

Dr. Ron Paul would be a great choice. That would be poetic justice! But I think he's more likely to be nominated for Treas. Secretary if Romney is elected.
Obama would likely renominate Bubbles Bernanke. If so, prepare for financial armageddon the likes of which the world has never seen!
But I would also recommend two others:
Dr. John Hussman
John Mauldin
Both of them get it!
Yesterday, Hussman wrote an excellent article about the consequences of more QE, and the Fed's nearly impossible challenge of unwinding it without a cataclysm! The link is here:

Ron Paul would be the shortest-serving Fed Chairman in history. He'd be in office for all of 30 seconds, when he would abolish the Fed, and with it, his own job.

Sorry SD, a trillion is so yesterday!
MillionDollarDoucheBag you crack me up.
You.
why assume that there will be a Fed at the end of 2014 when they're all raising the white flag and admitting they're impotent ? its like they're all frantically climing the ladder to get a spot in the helicopter fleeing the roof-top in Saigon -

I nominate lady gaga.
at least she's got balls
Gave you green because that one made me LOL.
Colonel, don't have the direct link for utube for 'ya but the Ladys' "equipment" fell out on stage.
Dude looks like a lady.
It's a rhetorical question people, there won't be a Federal Reserve bank at the end of 2014, at least not one with any kind of role in the real economy.
That's correct. And their entire negative balance sheet will have been fisted off onto the public by then, saving the banks from $10T in recognizable losses.
Brilliant foot work. Have to give them credit. Will go down as the largest and most blatant act of theft ever perpetrated by anyone ever in the entire scope of human history.
Much worse Kitty-Kat, there will not be any mention of it in the records at all.
not in the mood for funny today. the obvious answer is John Taylor.
Co-Chairs: Carlo Pietro Giovanni Guglielmo Tebaldo Ponzi and his cousin Vinny.
If Romney is retreating on Obamacare, no doubt if elected he will retreat on his vow to replace Bernanke as Fed chair. Looks like Bernanke is a shoo-in.
Romney Retreats on Obamacare
Posted by Laurence Vance on September 10, 2012 12:32 PM
Romney now says he wants to keep parts of Obamacare. He wants to replace it with his own plan "while keeping some popular provisions including coverage for people with pre-existing conditions." This should come as no surprise since Republicans have always believed in government intervention into medicine. Here is Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor expressing support for two of the worst provisions of Obamacare.
We too don't want to accept any insurance company's denial of someone and coverage for that person because he or she might have a pre-existing condition. Likewise we want to make sure that someone of your age has the ability to access affordable care if it's under your parent's plan or elsewhere.
Ignore Republican criticisms of Obamacare. They believe in using the power of the state to compel Americans to pay for other Americans' health care (Medicare, SCHIP, Medicaid) just like the Democrats.

Romney is probably playing to the center for the independant voters on this issue. He has always said repeal and replace Obamacare. This sounds unfortunately all too familiar though ...perscription drug card anyone. Bush wanted all his liberal friends to like him and ended up passing the prescription drug plan monstrosity under funded and look what that brought the US fiscally. If this isn't just politics then we are totally screwed. Additionally, if Obamacare survives as it is you can expect employers to begin large layoffs because of the oncoming taxation. Many businesses will simly close . Obamacare has yet to be fully implemented and when it is people are going to demand that it be thrown out.
How about Mighty Mouse? "Here I come to save the day . . . He'll get the situation well in hand." (Ahem, like our friends at the SEC?)

I don't believe it matters who is fed chairman, any joo will do. The policy will remain the same.
Bernie Madoff is rested and ready;)
Since I have been one of the few if not the only poster that has surmised many months ago that this would be BB's last term, I would suggest NO ONE. Dissolve the FRB. Reinstate Glass Steagall and let banks that are mortgage lenders be only regional or statewide so that one institution does not have a national effect.
... and seriously raise the fraction in "fractional reserve".
Let's ask a completely different question:
Why was Bernanke, who was widely considered to be the leading expert on the Fed's mistakes throughout the Great Depression, tapped as Fed Chairman roughly three years before the onset of the 'worst recession since the great depression', an event which no one - no one! - could see coming?
Because this is the land of sheep. Obviously they knew what was about to happen. They engineered it!
What....nobody likes Legs Dimon?
I nominate Rory McIlroy. He has his game together for sure.
Howard Dean has time on his hands also.
Ann Barnhardt.
Last but not least we got this guy not sure! He's smarter than any man alive!
An HP 256 computer with 8MGs of RAM and a 2GB hard drive.
Lucifer?.....oh-- nevermind
The guy who cooked the books at Crazy Eddie would be perfect, think his name is Sam Antar: he's a J, experienced at ponzi schemes... wait what about Madoff... even better!
Glen Hubbard. He's Romney's economic advisor and it is well known that he wanted the job the last time around.
I vote for Sandra Fluke. If she can honestly stand up in front of the country as a privileged recipient of a law degree from one of the country's best schools and claim that everyone else should be paying for her birth control so she can have it for free, I think she fully represents the sense of entitlement that grips the nation. She should easily grasp that money should be free forever and we should be able to print our way to prosperity instead of making any tough decisions or tradeoffs.
Shows you what little a law degree is worth these days if she can't afford her dalliances.
Ben Shalom "Control-P" Bernanke, of course. Though, I'd vote for Chuck Norris. What CAN'T The Chuck do?
Toto.
Surely it is another sign of the coming apocalypse that Janet Yellen got 1 in 4 of the votes. If you thought Ben<cntrl-p>Bernanke sucked at the job, just wait til that fucking horror comes to pass...
I vote for Larry Summers. Since the chairman is someone we've learned to hate we won't waste any time in growing an animosity.
Ron Paul would never be Fed Chairman. In what scenario would that happen? Can anyone tell me?
The end of the world?
No Fed. No Fed chairman.
Damn, all the good picks are taken...
Anybody wanna rez Kenneth Lay?
He's still under the bus.
...
Meg Whitman: she knows a thing or two about printers
lol -"troll teeth" for chairstain.
How about some crooked and corrupt Red Chinese Politico instead of the typical scumbag Hebrew variety that have looted our nation of its assets.
WTF: Why is not the question: Should there be a Fed at the end of 2014?
Peter Schiff or Max Keiser
Ben could only sit in awe as he watched Chuck Norris count to infinity...twice.
Satan
i vote TYLER ;)
Angelo Mozilo, Joe Cassano, Dick Fuld?
Fidel Castro
bob diamond is free?
Hey, that Obumba guy will be needing a job. This would be perfect since he is a financial genius and has never actually worked an honest day in his life.
Soupy Sales and Wavy Gravy can get us out of this jam.... Actually, Wavy Gravy had a not insignificant part in the eradication of small pox - this is no joke, this is not fiction, it's fact...
I nominate President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (Idiocracy).
The only Fed Chairman the gubmint really needs is a laser printer with the "P" button taped down.
I think a chimpanzee trained to hold down Ctrl - P would fit the bill quite nicely!
Oops - already have that - it doesn't seem to work.
The systems will have collapsed by then, as actuarial reality catches up with fantasy accounting. The scapegoats will look the same as in Weimar. Judenfetzen will be laughed at but finally understood for what it was.
The won't be a Fed chairman or a Fed.
We need to be more worried about who Hitler will be replaced by.
Martin Armstrong
The way the world's going ....
Barney Rubble
jamie dimon?
What would make a difference with another warm body in that position? An engine that runs badly has to be replaced or repaired,
If the design is bad to start with requires going back to the drawing board. There again this line of thinking would suppose we are trying to fix a problem, that is not happening.
There won't be a 2014. The Bernank will have destroyed the world by then.
Janet Yellen? Wahw, we will be fucked by a chick.
Whitney Tilson is the next Fed Chairman.
Richard Fisher of Dallas Fed.
I vote for the SHAM WOW! & STICKY guy. If a guy can sell rags for $19.95, he's the leader.
Jessie James
The answer is obvious. Unless the predators-DBA-government are overthrown somehow, the answer has been clear for some time.
Paul Krugman.
Because his helicopter is bigger, badder and faster. Everything Krugman has said in public [and private] for the past 2 years has been his campaign for fed chairman. Isn't this obvious?
The only possible alternative is Corzine.
Jeffrey Dahmer, undead and hungrier than ever.
My choice for FED chair, William K Black.
