    Apparently the 81 year old and current Obama advisor is being considered. Someone said on Morning Joe this morning that Volcker wants the job. Volcker has a lot of respect amongst economists, but is he too old? I seen him on Charlie Rose recently and he still seems sharp and in good shape for his age.

    I did a google news search and came up with this.

    I would kind of like to see him appointed because I'd see him in the media more which would be good for me since he reminds me of Tony Clifton, which makes me laugh.

    Volcker would be a good choice for Treasury Sec.

    I'd like to see him back at the Fed.
