Janet

I'm happy that President Obama has nominated Janet Yellen to replace Ben Bernanke as head of the Fed starting next year. This is one super smart lady. Her nomination is a no brainer if I ever saw one!

I read an article called "Five Things You Should Know About Obama's Fed Chair Nominee".  OK, so she's rich, not the first woman to lead a central bank (but the first to lead the US Fed), she's married to a Nobel prize winning economist, she's tops in accuracy for economic forecasting and she stays away from ties to political factions.  It's all good but who cares? 

She's Jewish!  I'm kvelling!

Good Luck Ms. Yellen. Your country needs you!
