I think Sara Palin is right for the job of VP. She has the enthusiasm & the
experience to help get our country back on the right track fiscally. She also
knows how to help the U.S. achieve energy independence because she has
experience in that area. I think it's hilarious how many in the media
(especially NBC)continue to try to smear her and she just keeps keepin on. I'm
going to give her a chance.

As far as the previous post is concerned, I keep hearing that the U.S. dollar
has bottomed. Well, it sure might look that way technically from a chartists
perspective. However, in my opinion fundamentals have always mattered more than
any candlestick pattern on a chart and the fundamentals for the U.S. dollar
stink period. The U.S. overall has a negative savings rate. We're broke and
laden with debt. Most of the world will go on growing without us because nations
like Japan who do have savings will now replace Americans as the greatest
consumers as they unleash their purchasing power on the world.

Best of Luck

These economically scary times are frustrating on so many levels! Baby boom era
retirements, the bottoming of the dollar, inexperienced political leaders, and
no real light at the end of the tunnel. What's an investor to do? I feel your
pain!

I think you are wrong. I do not think most Americans understand the
interconnectedness and they cannot see how helping the credit situation benefits
everyone/everything if it works.

If wall street and our economy which are pretty much one and the same go down it
may not matter how cash rich you think you are.

That's funny. I'd like to see an Obama/Palin ticket. Obama, I believe, has
only been in Washinton for three years. Palin zero. We need new people there.

yea kind of ,its a blame wallstreet mob out there ,but what everyone fails too
realize is the stock market represents our economy ,it also is the center of
wealth and retirement

well, if you've already raised alot of cash, it DOES benefit you if the prices
of everything---stocks included---drop.

yeah, why do i feel like us little investors will somehow be slammed by those
wanting to punish the wall streeters
