Do you guys think outside political pressure from will have any effect on the Feds decision for the interest rates in the next year or so? There is already a good amount of pressure coming from Europe and the middle east. Will the Fed disregard this completely?

I would say yes to your question since the Fed will be preoccupied with trying to prevent a serious economic collapse. Other countries complaining about the falling dollar will not be a major part of the decision making process.

Well the danger is that other countries will impose some restraint on US imports to protect their economies. I know this is extreme, but I do think the EU will try to put some pressure on the Fed. We also have to remember that the Fed is THAT important when it comes to future growth. And you guys will have serious issues regarding inflation in the coming years if the dollar keeps falling.
