The Republicans,if they get in,will surely send him packing.

But let's remember that Greenspan was first appointed by a Republican. He might have been reappointed anyway by Clinton in '96, but Congressional Republicans put extra pressure on the White House to guarantee his reappointment. After 12 years, it's doubtful that he'd be chosen for a fourth term by either party, but don't overlook the partisan credentials of this Bush appointee.

From the official biography:
federalreserve.gov

From 1974 to 1977 he served as Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers under President Ford and from 1981 to 1983 as Chairman of the National Commission on Social Security Reform [under Reagan].

Dr. Greenspan has also served as a member of President Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board, a member of Time magazine's Board of Economists, a senior adviser to the Brookings Panel on Economic Activity, and a consultant to the Congressional Budget Office.

His previous Presidential appointments include the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, the Commission on Financial Structure and Regulation, the Commission on an All-Volunteer Armed Force, and the Task Force on Economic Growth.
