President Obama: Appoint Paul Krugman Secretary of the Treasury!

Paul Krugman, the brilliant Nobel Prize-winning economist and author, knows exactly what it takes to rev up our recovery in a balanced and lasting way that will reflect our American values of economic justice, fairness and shared sacrifice. He would be an enormous asset to the president's cabinet, our fragile economy, and our national prosperity!

Why is this important?

I, and millions of Americans, have admired the work of Paul Krugman for many years and imagined how much faster and further along our economic revovery would be if he were Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Krugman would make an enormous difference and we desperately need his expertise, vision, and guidance in Washington!
