Ben Wants More Power

The NYT Reports:
WASHINGTON — During the debate over financial regulation, the Federal Reserve chairman, Ben S. Bernanke, has been surprisingly quiet.
But behind the scenes, he has been a forceful proponent of giving the Fed more power, both defending his management of the economic crisis and arguing that more authority would help the agency act more decisively to reduce the chances of a recurrence, according to interviews with lawmakers and officials from the Fed, the Treasury and the White House ...
A separation of Bank & State!
Bernanke is in a Race with Ron Paul, a race between politicizing the Fed and H.R. 1207 passing.
By allying itself with the Democratic Party and gaining more "oversight" (read: power) the Fed can negate any oversight and transparency that H.R. 1207 would bring.
The FED must go and central banking must be allowed to expire.
Unfortunately this is a pipe dream as long as our congress critters's only purpose is to gain power and political favor, because there is just too much of it in banking. That's why they control the money supply in cahoots with the banksters.
There should be an amendment to the Constitution forbidding politicians from having any ties to the banking industry, and bankers having any ties to politicians.

The DP is proof that the grassroots support for Ron Paul and his peaceful message of individual liberty is large, real, and not going away!
