The prospective nominee promises to pursue a stable dollar if confirmed to a central bank board that he thinks is too dominated by academics.

Prospective Federal Reserve nominee Herman Cain promised to pursue a stable dollar if confirmed to a central bank board that he thinks is too dominated by academics.

"The Fed still operates on the 'professor standard,' enshrined with Bill Clinton's nominations of pure academics. Their textbooks say strong economic growth, particularly strong wage growth, causes inflation, which Fed policy should temper," Cain wrote. President Donald Trump has said he intends to nominate Cain as a Fed governor, though he has not yet sent the name to the Senate. The potential nomination faces a tough test in the upper chamber, where at least four Republicans have said they plan to oppose Cain, seemingly dooming his chances. In addition, White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow said earlier this week that the administration is continuing to interview possible candidates.

🤦🏼‍♂️

Yup, just what Trump wants. A pizza parlor guy on the Fed.

“People on the Fed are so intelligent they don’t understand” is the angle here. 😒

Alan Greenspan taught the Fed that we suppose to have every 8 or 10 years boom and bust cycle. so we are due for bust cycle and that fed keep on raising the street rate.

I am old enough to remember when the nation’s Conservatives thought educated and intelligent were good traits.

So speak loud and clear, to the space. No one is preventing you :-)

Good job

There should be a professor standard. Our entire global economy rests on the decisions that are made by the Fed and requires an encyclopedic knowledge of micro and macro economics as well as vast understanding of the history of monetary policy. Go back and sell some 🍕

This coming from the same person whose economic 'plan' came straight out of a video game...

We want Jimmy McMillan. “The rent is too damn high!” guy.

DFW_Dee Dunce....

Translation; I’m stupid.

I know nothing abut the Fed which is exactly why I am the most qualified person to counter those who do know something.

Just go away, sir.

Nothing prevents you from using your voice as part of the peanut gallery.

999 is Deep 6 for economy. Genius.

Go away

Herman Cain appears to lack the support for Senate confirmation to Fed seatHerman Cain, who President Trump has been considering for a nomination to the Federal Reserve board, does not appear to have enough support to be confirmed by the Republican-controlled Senate. SOUNDS ABOUT WHITE...... Considering all the other scumbag appointies the Republican Senate has pushed through for Trump I'm guessing Cain's biggest disqualifier is the fact that he's black So that means both nominations should be rejected. Herman Cain has been on two different state boards. He is more qualified than Steven brown nose. So they both should be out.
