And you know what, you never address any serious point I bring up, why the sudden attention? Because like all the other jokers on here, you only care about posturing and pageantry?

To my knowledge he has NEVER "worked for a bank." He was on the board of directors for the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

When you say he "worked for a bank" you are implying that he was an officere or something. So what are you alleging that he did wrong in being on the board?

Well, you can't sit and preach economics, rail against the tax system, then say the Federal Reserve is great, shouldn't be audited, and Ron Paul supporters calling for that are "stupid". The federal reserve sits at the core of the big government mechanism, financing the military industrial complex and all the market manipulations and takeovers.

No, it's common sense. Who sets interest rates? Who lends the US government it's money?

In the very early days of my career, I worked for the Postal Service for a short time. Does that mean that I'm to blame for them going broke?

I take it you a Ron Paul supporter. OK. The if Federal Reserve is evil and/or illegal---how do you get rid of it w/o destroying the country? Its not enough to say "its bad"--you, or Ron Paul has to have a way to eliminate it w/o harm.
