Rich,

Wasn't Volcker appointed Fed Chairman by President Carter?

>>Well, if Volcker was Democrat, please correct me. <<

I never said he was a Democrat. I said I could find no evidence of party affiliation, and that, since his early appointments in the Treasury Department were by Kennedy and Johnson, IF he is affiliated with a party, it is more likely that he's a Democrat. However, I expect that at least since his appointment by Carter to the Federal Reserve Board, he has chosen to be unaffiliated. You claimed he is a Republican, and I challenged you to prove it.
