"Remember the "New Deal"? Yeah well Roosevelt didn't really have a plan when he announced the New Deal. He had to seek strong advice from Keynes to actually come up with a solution so it's really ol Jonny's plan and not Roosevelt's."

- keynes was the economics idea man, but the authority ultimately rests with the president so it's his plan and the prez deserves most of the credit and most of the blame for whatever happens as a result...i hear the same argument about president bush whose disasterous policies are often attributed to his advisors...bush waged 7 years of war and the economy still went in the dumper - how is john mcsame going to revive the economy with the same bush wars, the same bush policies, and the same bush advisors?

allan greenspan is supposedly an economic genius and he still managed the global economy into a recession...THANKS AL!

the world would be a better place with ron paul as president...at this point joe the plumber would be a big improvement
