This is the very popular misconception, exactly what the creators of the fraud 
want everyone to think. The federal reserve is a *private* bank, controlled by 
*private* interests. It is *not* a government agency. It is neither federal, 
nor has any reserves.

Try this simple test: look it up in the phone book. Does it appear in the 
government pages, or in the business white pages? Yep. In the business pages, 
after Federal Express...

"He who has the gold, makes the rules."

Do you really think the president has a say in who he appoints to the board? 
They have the gold, they make the rules. Nothing has changed the truth of that 
proverb, and nothing will. Even if he did get to appoint someone of his own 
choosing, do you really think the other directors listen to *him*, or do you 
think *he* listens to *them*?  I'll even take bets on this one.
