Barack Obama names Ford CEO Mulally to group on boosting exports
President Barack Obama has appointed 18 executives to join an advisory group that aims to increase US exports. Ford Motor Co. CEO Alan Mulally is included in this group.

In a statement, Obama said that boosting these exports “strengthens,“ as well as “supports millions of good, high-paying American jobs.” The Export Council was created earlier this year by Obama. He set out a goal to double US

Obama "aims to increase US exports". What a loser. Everyone knows that America doesn't need a middle class. All we need are really rich folks. That way their money can "trickle" down to us. Corporations shouldn't be regulated. This includes BP. Rich Corporations are the key to a successful America.

Oops, sorry that's the Reagan/Bush/Cheaney method. Which failed like crazy and sent us into a recession. Never mind.

Keep it up Obama. Or at least keep tricking us into believing that you aren’t for the corporations first (People second). He talks the talk, but he doesn’t walk the walk.

Lexsucks, you have to see Michael Moors film "Capitalism A love Affair" It portrays all the presidents as puppets, in one scene it shows a big corporate guy telling Regan to hurry and rap his speech up, it was an eye opener, Id doesn't matter who is in, they do the same thing anyways. Kennedy tried to run the show, he tried to get the Federal Reserve back to the American Public, not a privately run company.I am a very competent shooter with a lot of firearm training,and there was two shooters for sure, Oswell probably never even did it? America is very messed up, although the majority of people are great, its the corporate people that screw the world and give America a bad name, they have to be stopped and introduce democracy again.

You seem somewhat confused, or at best confusing, buddy. You seem to be yapping away without actually understanding how the economy of a country works. Let me explain.

America is in a recession, true. The way to get an economy out of a recession is to employ expansionary measures. That means government spending on creating jobs that produce. Obama has done that by bailing out the car manufacturers, etc. Now that means that eventually the demand curve will shift to the right and bring the economy back into equilibrium. BUT, that is not enough. If the equilibrium gross domestic produce (GDP) is below the production possibilities frontier (PPF) curve of the United States then that means that the economy is not at its most efficient. So supply of products have to be increased. But since the US market can only absorb so much of what is being produced (at that price level) the country MUST export. And this is what Obama is doing. He is very well advised. And to export effectively the dollar value against its overseas competitors must be kept competitively low. I have noticed very slight devaluing of the US dollar over the last few weeks, so the time is right.

Sorry if I have confused you, but hey, it's only fair. You confused me first! LOL!

Tango. Obama has done everything in his power to demonize the Private sector. He has put the recession blame on the wrong source. Notice He demonizes Wall Street but not Fredie and Fanie . He Demonizes large Corporations and not large Government I could go on and on. Next You Can't spend your way out of bad policies. The people that create jobs and products in this country have folded there hands and are sitting back doing nothing because they don't know what this clown is going to do next. With his corp tax policies [$250,000] and above, there is no incentive to grow. With policies like his don't expect anything good for a long time. This recession was caused by the sub-prime lending that was created in the Carter Administration. This was all started due to the wrong type of government regulation. And by the way, Obama is being advised by a tax cheat, anti American activists, and Union Thugs. The devaluing of the U.S. dollar is on its way.

Export export and export. This is why all Asian countries devalue there currancy they get the US dose not and this is why the once great US has fewer jobs that familes can be supported by. They are all in China and Japan now and see all the junk we Americans buy that was once sold in the US and keeped Americans working ALL GONE. It only took us 40 years to see our American dreams go over seas.
