Isn't Alan Greenspan's term as Fed chief coming to an end?
If so, has Bush renominated him?

Has his successor been named?

1. .
I think I remember my dad saying that his term is comming to an end soon.

Kerry should appoint Robert Reich as the new Fed chair imo.

Greenspan is a hardcore Reaganite.

Mr. Greenspan is Chairman of the United States Federal Reserve Board, an office he first took on August 11, 1987. He was reappointed to an unprecedented fourth term on June 20, 2000 (which ends on June 20, 2004). He has been appointed to this post by U.S. Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and Bill Clinton. From 1974 to 1977, he was Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under Gerald Ford.

(On Edit) how could he originally be appointed in an odd year but has been recently reappointed during an even year? Did the previous fed chair retire?
