I'm sure Greenspan gets pressure from many sources, but even if he does, he is under no obligation to reconsider or change policies. I don't question the source of the rumor, only its impact.

<<It has been reported that through back channels Gore putting pressure on Greenspan to lighten up, and it is speculated that as soon as China vote, Greenspan will start making statements that he sees slowing>>

Very interesting. Do you know where has this been reported?

I would wonder if Gore has much ability to pressure Greenspan. I think the fed is pretty much independent notwithstanding the close working relationship with the Clinton White House. Also, I seem to recall that Greenspan helped lose the election for Ford, reportedly his favorite president.
