Sounds like something Ayn Rand would agree with. Cain and Stephen Moore should liven up the Fed's policy discussions. It would be fun to be a fly on the wall.

If he is nominated, expect the same garbage as was tossed out in 2011. The only thing Democrats hate more than Trump is a conservative black man who is successful.

Would a gold standard help Trump bring down interest rates?

Filling these two seats sounds like a long-term thing that some future president will take credit for.

I am losing count on how many people are declaring for the Presidency. And if I hear any more baloney from Biden, I'm going to write him a letter. Couldn't Congress concern themselves about some of our important issues and shut up on the 'hate Trump' rhetoric?
