A couple of lightning round questions here as we're getting a little short on time.

Do you think that if you'd taken a sort of less extreme position, not come in arguing for 150 basis points or so of cuts, that you might have more influence on your peers on the Open Market Committee?

Given the import that the president has attached to the Fed, as a member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, do you feel like you exercise executive authority?

Have you talked with the president or anybody at the White House since you came to the Fed?

Have you talked to him since that congratulatory call?

One very quick question.

Have you had your interview for Fed Chair yet?
