• "I believe you are the right leader for this moment in the nation's economic history and I believe your reappointment sends the right signal to markets."

• “Under your leadership, Mr. Chairman, the Federal Reserve has taken extraordinary actions to right the economy. …These efforts have played, in my view, a significant role in arresting the financial crisis and financial markets have begun to recover."

• “For that, Mr. Chairman, you and the Federal Reserve deserve, in my view, praise for your acumen and gratitude for your role in preventing a far worse outcome.  And, I believe you deserve another term as chairman.”
